  • Description

    Motivates me and brings me happiness:
    - Physical outdoor activities (ie. rafting, ziplining, rock climbing, running)
    - People interactions (ie. guiding tours, working with small children, tutoring)
    - Learning new and interesting skills

    I have worked at an Adventure Resort for the past three summers as a raft guide, zipline guide, and reservationist, and it completely matches my personality! I love to be outside doing things that slightly raise my blood pressure and put me back at my house with a grin on my face.
    However, I also love learning new things in and out of the classroom. Last summer I took an internship conducting a hydrologic study within Mammoth Cave National Park.
    I also love to tutor peers in different subjects, and work with small children. Last year, I led a 3d printing project with an afterschool program at a local elementary school.

    I am most comfortable living in a small town environment/living out in the middle of the woods away from town. I love talking to people but I would consider myself more lowkey.
