I like…anything involving water and the outdoors. I also like to cook, bake, travel and watch some sports (tennis, NBA finals, big soccer games).
I eat…most things. I’ve been trying to do paleo/raw food whenever I can but nothing can keep me from brownies, good bread and yogurt.
I do…tennis, crossfit and triathlons.
I am…currently finishing up my undergrad at OSU and then I’ll either be going into teaching or medicine. Keeping my options open I also teach for Kaplan Test Prep.

Something people would be surprised to know about you:
I can speak German? some people might not know that…or I grew up taking care of horses and chickens. I am also HORRIBLE at winter sports (except cross-country skiing).
