About Me
I grew up all across the Eastern seaboard of the United States in an airline family, but most of my childhood was spent in Alabama and New York. I moved to Wyoming from New Hampshire, and love my new home! I am currently a senior in Governance & Conflict Resolution with minors in anthropology & Honors. I specialize in Scandinavian linguistics and contemporary security studies in the United Kingdom and the Balkans. During my time at UW, I have served as the senior program assistant and social media coordinator for our Education Abroad department and have participated in multiple study abroad experiences myself with our university to Iceland, England, Vietnam, and Cambodia.
When I'm not working I'm.
concocting shoestring budget adventures, curating playlists, or out collecting rocks.
Fun Fact
