Get to know us

I am from Pembroke, North Carolina, but I moved away to satisfy my spirt of adventure.

I became interested in community-lever civil projects while doing a fellowship in Washington, DC.  I joined ACCESS to apply what I learned at Search for Common Ground to a specific community closest to me.

I hope to develop more applicable skills to take back to the professional field of peacebuilding and social cohesion.

My goal is to either return to DC or go back to work abroad.

I play games like Minecraft, Civilization 6 and Stardew Valley.  Once a week, I spend time with friends.  I have two pet rabbits.  I read and I am attempting to write a novel (though I practice with short stories). My favorite show is Pokémon.

I have a very diverse playlist. It’s not unusual for my music to go to Bosnian, Armenian, Korean, or Finnish.
