Hailing from a tiny little town in Southern Oregon, I have traveled the world and back again looking for adventure.

I'm currently settled in Northern Virginia (fairly close to D.C.) plodding away at my job as a writer for a political organization while I finish my college education only one semester left!

This coming summer - the summer of 2013 - my adventuring takes me across the pond to England where I will be attending a summer course at London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts, expanding my knowledge of British cuisine, visiting my Swiss family, hopefully touring Paris, and possibly falling in love - if not with someone, then even more so with life.

I adore music more than just about anything, and would much prefer pouring over some obscure but fascinating topic like Ancient Hebrew tradition over the club scene any day. I'm a nerd in my own right, but proud of it. I long for adventure and try to see beauty in the everyday.
