About Me

I’m a student of the world. At heart a nomad and vagabond, I’ve lived in small towns and big cities, but most recently have called Los Angeles and New York home. Like everyone else, I’m figuring out what I want to do with my life. I am currently a student at the New School in NYC studying conflict/post-conflict societies and issues around rights, justice, and governance.

I love music, reading books, writing, vegan food (but sometimes also cheese), riding my bicycle, and asking questions. I had an unconventional childhood which has led to an unconventional life.

As Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
