In May 2009, I graduated from Washington State University with my Bachelor of Science in Communications, Public Relations. After three years of Mandarin Chinese language courses, I earned my minor in Chinese. On September 11, 2009 I moved to Beijing, China for work . I love to travel. The knowledge and experience gained from travel cannot be taught in a classroom. When I’m not working, I’m wakeboarding, snowboarding or longboarding. Unfortunately, during the summer of 2008 I tore my ACL wakeboarding. One hamstring graft and eight months of physical therapy later, I am so happy to ride again! While in college, I taught jazz and hip-hop at a local dance studio. In my spare time I enjoy taking pictures, crocheting, and hanging out with friends. I also love to follow politics. I wouldn’t call myself conservative or liberal, but issue oriented. It’s not about parties, it’s about people. I believe our generation needs to be more politically active. The decisions politicians make today will affect us in the future. I am so blessed for all the opportunities I’ve been given. I have the greatest friends and family anyone could ask for.

I love my life!
