Hobbies
In my spare time, I enjoy reading memoirs, cooking for myself and co-workers, knitting on a loom, keeping in touch with family and friends, and executing my plans to live the best life possible. I really hope to travel outside of the country again soon. I have been to France, Israel, Germany, Switzerland, the Dominican Republic, and Canada. My medium-term goal is to visit Costa Rica, Egypt, and Australia. I have worked in local government for two years and plan to enroll in law school in the summer of 2016 to become a civil liberties/rights lawyer or city attorney.
