Staring out at Joshua Tree National Park in California (Summer 2016) 22 years old + I'm just trying to figure out my life. This blog will be my scrapbook of the various experiences and things I'd like to share. Born and raised in the midwest USA, I'm currently a PhD candidate at University of Michigan in Ann Arbor pursuing a degree in Materials Science and Engineering. I love the outdoors, projects, friends and family. This blog is inspired by other friends who also have blogs.
