Brief Biographical Sketch:

HELLO FELLOW FOOD LOVERS! I am a sophomore here at Stanford and a current Human Biology major. I am from a small town in northern Washington. I got interested in learning about where our food comes from about 5 years ago and have kept learning since. I enjoy knowing why food is important, how our food is made, where it comes from and just about different foods in general. My favorite food of all time is hummus and when I am not reading busy with school work I love to ski, run, play tennis and travel.
