I’m giving up the island life (for now) and returning to North Carolina for the next couple years! It was a hard goodbye, but there’s big things on the horizon…

The goodbye committee at Toyon, and Morgan motoring me to the ferry

Catalina Island from my airplane window. I’m not ashamed to admit I was crying as I was flying away.

I’m returning to the homeland to earn my Masters of Arts in Teaching to become a high school science teacher! My goal is to focus on chemistry and environmental sciences. I start classes this fall, but I’ll be bouncing around for the summer, visiting old friends and new places. See ya soon, NC!
