Description
Hi! My name is Elizabeth and I am 22 and I am from Los Angeles, California. I am a recent graduate of Duke University and in college I studied environmental science and biology. I am really passionate about the environment and making the world a better and friendlier place!
I love being outdoors and in nature. I am an avid runner and rock climber and led outdoor trips for work for four years in school. I was in charge of trips such as climbing, caving, hiking, backpacking, surfing, paddle boarding, and more!
I took French classes for five years in school and I am always looking to improve my speaking, listening, and comprehension skills! I love being around people of all ages and I am especially great with kids too.
I look forward to hearing from you! :D
