I am a journalism student in the University of Florida Honors Program.

I am addicted to creating stories. I have hiked eight days on the Appalachian Trail, worked with rock musicians and hippies on an organic farm, caved 600 feet underground, learned the traditional-Ethiopian dance, tagged Spotted Eagle Rays and experimented interesting cuisine- all for a good story. My iPhoto library is continually increasing. I feel a forgotten moment is a loss. Words and images are my passion because I rely on them to be my storytellers.
