About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, create community, encourage others to live their best lives!

ABOUT ME
I am a major people person who loves to get to know people and their passions. I moved to Australia 10 years ago from the USA with no plan to return. I enjoy my job in healthcare but also enjoy all of my other hobbies such as rock climbing, surfing, hiking, random road trips, music festivals etc.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that life is a journey, and that you are the one that guides your path. Do not let others lead you astray. Do not regret anything in your life, because everything will teach or reinforce a lesson.
