Growing up in Seattle, I've always had a passion for the outdoors.
My passion for sustainability comes from my desire to protect natural spaces that I've come to love through hiking, backpacking, and climbing.
In 2018, I did my first backpacking trip to Patagonia with my sister, where we spent a month chasing incredible vistas and recentered ourselves against the backdrop of the rugged Patagonian sky. See the video below to get a glimpse of our trip!
Since then, I've continued to explore the world and now do it through rock climbing as well - my goal is to spend time climbing in each of the 50 states!

The rest of the time when I'm not trying to get away from civilization, you'll usually find me on the field, playing ultimate frisbee.
I started playing ultimate my sophomore year of college, and haven't stopped ever since. My teammates are some of the best humans I know, and I've learned so much from them!
I firmly believe that playing ultimate makes me a better person by helping me build skills such as leadership, communication, and self-discipline. Ultimate has taught me that success is the accumulation of hard work, and it's helped me build my self-confidence by forcing me to learn from my failures on the field.
Below is a video I made of the graduating seniors from last year, just to showcase a little of what we do! I also helped redesign our team's website.
