I am just like any other students with goals and thoughts about what I am going to do with my life. I really love my major and aspire to run a hospital one day. I love traveling and seeing different cultures aside from living in the US diverse cultures. The places I have visited include Canada, Mexico, and Vietnam. Vietnam was one of my favorite places to visit.The terms “amazing” and “beautiful” are understatements. I stayed in Vietnam for over a month and it made me realize how much I want to have a career in the Health field.

I’m originally from Eugene but relocated in California during fifth grade. My career goals are uncertain at this point,  but I’ve always wanted to be a part of the CIA or FBI…you’ll never know.  During my senior year I went to New Zealand with my family. While we were there I bungee jumped into the Taupu River and the only thing that kept me from an accident were the straps around my ankles. I can lick my elbow. I love coffee and getting chai lattes, other than that, I enjoy drawing, running and spending time with my family and friends.
