July, 1992

Bio: 

I was raised on a small farm in rural Maine, where I was home schooled by my mother. Being educated at home allowed me many opportunities that I would not otherwise have had, and these opportunities have helped foster many passions, including farming, cooking, and art. I pull from many different interests to create art, and am most satisfied when I am able to combine my love of creating with my love of building community. I am a student in the Social Work program at the University of Southern Maine, and am currently taking a hiatus from school, During this hiatus, I am spending my time working, creating art, and learning about myself and others, both in my community and globally. As part of this learning, I hope to volunteer in several different regions in 2016, giving me the chance to experience a diverse range of cultures, while allowing me to make a difference in the lives of individuals in need.
