Favorite travel destination: Cuba, Seattle, and Belize. All three of these places have had an effect on me. They all contributed to my growth as a young adult.

I believe travel can: Do a lot more than one would think. Travel is a teacher, a philospher, a giver and a perspective changer.
Favorite Quote: "There will be tears and moments of wanting to throw in all of the towels you can find. But when the process meets the promise, the collision will fortify your faith like never before." - Tamra Sease
