I am part of WorldOregon because I am proud of how the team promotes public understanding of world affairs.

My favorite place to be: a coffee shop with a book, or an Oregon trail with a backpack.

Why Oregon means the world to me: Oregon is the place where my dad taught me to buck hay, ride a horse, and cold plunge in the outdoors.

A place on my wishlist: Havana, Cuba (where my mom was born).
