My passion in life is to tell stories. Whether it is through teaching, cooking, research or playing tabletop games with friends, as long as I get to tell a story I am happy. By telling stories I want to share some form of entertainment or knowledge (or both) with others around me. making others' lives better and more enjoyable drives me daily. Throughout my studies, I have learned about, seen and researched the connections between stories and found new discoveries within those connections. Finding new connections between historical events and the present are fascinating to me and are a large part of what drives me. Needing to know everything about the universe might sound like an enormous task but it is the kind of drive I bring into everything I do.
