  • Description

    I grew up in Southern Oregon, being outdoors in places of natural beauty is what I am most used to. I love Oregon, but haven't travelled much and am trying to explore new places, new perspectives, and new experiences. My parents hosted many people on their small farm through the WWOOF program for a number of years, this is what inspired me to look into workaway. I am excited to learn about different cultures and ways of life as well as pickup new skills and knowledge. I'm new to workaway, but have worked in a variety of positions, including physical jobs in a variety of environments. I spent a summer in NW Colorado for a landscape design company, doing installs and most recently I worked as an Assistant Manager at a retail sporting goods store.

    I find joy in being active. I've played on numerous sports teams; basketball, tennis, with soccer being the sport I've played longest. Some activities I enjoy are hiking, skydiving, water skiing, weightlifting, running, swimming, kayaking, volleyball, reading, and bouldering. I would love to improve my abilities when it comes to cooking (I'm only really a beginner at the moment), bussiness/finance, playing musical instruments, speaking new languages/ASL. I am very open to new experiences and these are just a few to start.

    More details about my language interests
    I am slowly learning Spanish on my own time, but am interested in more immersive or formal education if possible. In addition, I am absolutely open to and interested in learning other languages if they are available to me, including ASL. I am not against teaching English (my native language,) but I have no experience teaching.

    I am no stranger to physical labor, I grew up cutting firewood, and helping my dad on our small farm where simple construction projects were common.
