Description

I am an adventurous, hard working, empathetic, and curious person who values family and friends above all else.

I am most happy when I am learning. And I see friendships as the key to unlocking knowledge. This belief helps me make new friends, explore new places, and continuously become a better human.

When I was 21 years old, I lived in Madrid, Spain with a host family for 6 months. I quickly became part of their family, eating my meals with them, playing with their 2 year old, and exchanging cultural beliefs, experiences, and insights. Those 6 months were some of the best of my life and I promised myself that I would find an experience like that again.

I speak Spanish well and am a native English speaker from Los Angeles, California. In my free time I love to spend time with friends and family, run, hike, play soccer, and read.

What else ...

I am great with kids. I have a younger brother and sister who I consider my best friends. My brother is 11 years younger than me, so I helped my parents raise him.

I love being outdoors, fitness, and reading. I read about 20 books per year, play soccer competitively in San Francisco, and run marathons with my dad.
