She loves to travel, especially to Spanish speaking countries and studied abroad for a semester in college to Buenos Aires, Argentina. She also traveled to Nicaragua for 2 weeks last January and led a service learning project where she and her group helped build a school, learned about free and fair trade, picked coffee in the mountains and climbed an active volcano.
