Welcome to my little corner of the internet.

After over 10 years of dedicated work in fundraising for progressive nonprofits, I took a pause to explore the world, pursue new adventures, and connect with strangers in faraway places. I sought the awe, the wonder, the learning that can only come from leaving routine comforts behind.

Now I’m back — with renewed energy and clarity to continue working toward much-needed radical change here at home. I’ll continue to update this blog with stories from home and around the world.

“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.”
