I have previously published written articles Saturday Night Magazine and the Daily Trojan, the University of Southern California's daily newspaper.

I also have photographs published in the Santa Monica Daily Press, Pasadena Now (online newspaper), Campus Circle Magazine, Daily Trojan, and El Rodeo (USC yearbook).

When you are traveling, take practical adventures that will lead you off the beaten trail.

The craziest place I've visited is probably Bali, since I spent enough time there and met enough people to understand how vast the cultural differences are between there's and mine. The treatment of women and extreme daily devotion to religion provided me with a big culture shock.

During the photography workshop I took in Bali, a man I had merely met a few days earlier showed me the tattoo of my name on his hand as he introduced me to the elders in his family compound, assuming that since we had spent some time together that we were obviously in a serious relationship.

Don't limit your travel experience to just big tourist traps and absolutely try the local cuisine.

I would love to travel anywhere in China. I know people that explored the majority of Shanghai on their bicycle.

Aside from road tripping all over the United States, I have traveled to Bermuda, Mexico, Canada, Indonesia, and Singapore.

I am hopefully traveling to China later in the summer if I am accepted into a month long program where I'd be teaching English to K-12 students.
