Our lives are made up of moments. A series of possible unrelated moments all put together. Most of them we just pass by without even thinking about them. But that big huge adventure, the life we’ve always dreamt of, it’s here, it’s happening. There is so much beauty in our everyday normal lives. But that beauty has become so normal to us that we forget that it’s there. I refuse to accept that. My story is one that is filled with passion, joy, laughter, love, wanderlust, and a huge enthusiasm for life. I strive to show people that they matter and I want to live my life to inspire and encourage others by serving them and fostering relationships.

As I look around campus, professors, students and my peers are doing amazing things. From volunteering overseas to researching a vaccine for cancer, there is no doubt that UGA and the people at UGA inspire me. These people at our university inspire me to be a better person, to do great things and to live up to my potential. Professionally I hope to do that through sharing stories of people and organizations that inspire others to make a difference. Everybody has a story to tell and I believe in the power of communication to do that.
