Description
I was born and raised in California and decided to move to Alaska for college. I greatly enjoy adventuring and trying new things. My favorite hobbies are dance trapeze (circus arts) and reading fiction.
I'm using my gap year from school to explore the country and enjoy meeting new people. Connecting with people from many different backgrounds is something I find very enriching. -

I studied German and Alaska Native languages (Gwich'in and Iñupiaq) during college. I'm also a credentialed online ESL teacher, though I've taken a step back from the classroom for the time being.
I love being around with animals, having grown up with multiple dogs and chickens.
I am currently in the middle of a work exchange opportunity as an assistant at a travel hostel, where I'm responsible for cleaning and reception duties. -
