Another Month has Flown By!

Wow, I'm loving life here in Flagstaff my time is flying by soooo fast.

This month has been a traveling all over the state month! I'm been in Phoenix, Tucson, Prescott, Sedona and Flagstaff in the last month!!

I had our yearly VISTA training this year in Prescott and got to see some friends from regional training come together for the first time since we started our projects. It was fantastic getting to see them and we had a blast at training.

I also got to spend a few days in Sedona with Leveta where she lives and got to meet our new colleague who starts now this first week of November. So I have some fantastic pics from a short hike we took while I visited her.

I also got to see Elon students this month as they came to Tucson and Mexico to do a trip with BorderLinks, an organization that does educational trips down to different Mexican border towns so that students and organizations can learn about the specific issues that affect border towns. It was a blast to be back with Elon students and I even got to see an old professor and another 2009 graduate who also now lives in AZ like me. It was a complete blast and I got to learn more specific issues about my regional focus so that was fantastic.

This month just went by sooo fast. It's been fantastic and I got to see my first day of snow here in Flagstaff, but it definitely wasn't too bad. I'm sure I'll have pictures when we start getting FEET of snow!!

Hope everyone is having a great fall and getting ready for the holiday season!

Enjoy the pics!

About Me and this Blog

So here's a little about me. I have many interests, but I'd love to have a career as a professor so I can continue to spark that desire to make the world a better place, like my professors instilled in me. I want to teach Hispanic/Latin American Studies, work in sustainable community development with a focus on education and health care. And a whole lot more. I'd love to be a consultant on top of teaching so I can work with projects around the country and Latin America using my organizational development and business skills.

I now live with the best man in the world, second to my awesome dad and brother of course!, in Tucson,AZ.

My life would not be complete without family, dancing and traveling!

I'm trying to learn from the Buddhist and the Taoist and take life more low key, and one day at a time, tell me how I'm doing every once in a while!

I have no problem admitting that I have chronic medical issues, the more people know, the more they will understand, and the more likely I will meet others who understand what's it's like to be young and facing medical problems.

This blog is a continuation of my college/personal life blog. From now on I hope to show how an idealist young professional really tries to make a difference in this world, while thriving and living with chronic illness.

So that's a little bit about me and this blog, so let's hang out at the local coffee shop and enjoy some live music with some great old and new friends and then spend the evening dancing the night away :)
