After two years of undergraduate education characterized by rapid, (over)exploratory, and intense technical and scientific knowledge acquisition, I took a detour into the small business advertising world for a month, spent some time volunteering at a local humane society, worked as a camp counselor for a summer, and gained some exposure into the local agricultural and farming community. In the past I've spent some time contributing to a web development education initiative and I've worked on an independent/freelance website design project too. 

I like to appreciate and enjoy the beauty of nature, and I am currently learning how to sew. 

I am taking a step back from a technically focused and incomplete undergraduate journey to recognize the heavy historical and social considerations that I now feel the need to understand better before even considering choosing to advance innovation beyond natural human boundaries. 

I think it is important to recognize and respect the positive attributes of tradition that support long term human and community health and wellness and help carry those forward. I would like to find an opportunity where I can work on how to translate this intention to my professional life to benefit those around me.
