Profile Information

Which part of town do you work in? (This will help us plan happy hour or other after work events)
Whidbey Island!
Which aspects of Global Seattle are you most interested in?
International Networking, Educational Workshops, Global Awareness Events, Making Travel Buddies, Travel Workshops/Photo Slideshows, Exploring Seattle with like-minded Global Citizens
What brings you to Seattle and where are you from?
I grew up in Edmonds, WA. After a year living in Istanbul and then 4 years on the east coast, I am happy to be back to the Seattle area, working on creating unique opportunities for cross-cultural exchange and helping others participate in an international dialogue.
What's the next stop on your dream travel list and why?
I don't know if I'll get there next, but I would love to visit Bhutan and also Bali because I feel that the energy there would be something different than I've experienced. I am also looking forward to exploring Morocco and staying with the Berber people as well as exploring Tanzania and staying with Masaai families on the new "Global Awareness Adventures" that I am implementing with CulturaLinks USA. :)
