About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Change the world. Do something great. Be inspired and an inspiration. Live a good life.

ABOUT ME

I am currently a student at American University in Washington DC studying International Studies with a concentration in International Development in Africa.

After I graduate I am going to join the Peace Corps and will hopefully be stationed in Africa. I'm still unsure of what I would like to do long term but all I know is that I want to travel the world, see everything I possibly can and help those that need it along the way. I think not knowing where you are going to end up in life makes life more exciting.

I have an unexplainable passion and need to travel and see the world. I love meeting and getting to know new people, listening to their stories and learning from them.

As of now, I have the strong desire to see and do everything I possibly and help others along the way.

PHILOSOPHY

‎"Giving is more joyous than receiving, not because it is a deprivation, but because in the act of giving lies the expression of my aliveness."

I think it's important to not be afraid to do what you want to do in life, it's your life so live it! Don't let anything hold you back.

Be yourself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving!! I can't even begin to describe this unbelievable breathtaking experience! All I can say is that I look forward to doing it again!
Another amazing experience I've had was meeting the Lost Boys of Sudan. Listening to their experience as refugees from Sudan was such a life changing experience. Even though they have seen war and genocide, it's amazing to me to see how much strength they have. They were truly amazing and inspiring people!
