About Me



My Interests

Changing the World.

I'd like to meet:

YOU. Seriously... msprm name="movie" Caitlin: After a year and a half studying at UGA, Caitlin decided to take a hiatus from her cozy condo to live with 50 other roadies in Sunny California. A native of Atlanta, she’s headed back to the South to encourage others to drop of school too (just kidding) and change the world. Despite growing up in the south Caitlin doesn’t enjoy sweet tea or fried chicken, but loves Chick-fil-a! Although she might say she has “no hobbies”, she enjoys reading, studying up on Uganda and other humanitarian crises, and wishes she had more time to rock climb, yea she’s hardcore like that!------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------Chris: Born and raised in the snowy state of Ohio, Chris can’t resist the warm beaches of Florida, where he spent his college years soaking up the sun. He loves extreme sports, including dirt biking, “thrashing” on his long board, and performing on the water ski team in his hometown. Since graduation, he’s found himself booking screenings and picking up California slang like “ballin”, “so sick” and “yeeeah boyee!” ------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------Russell: Don’t be fooled into thinking he’s a local SoCal resident. Despite the fact the he spends most of his time surfing and skating; this southern boy was born and raised in Houston, TX. A veteran of IC, Russell has been on the road once before and even organized the Displace Me event in Austin. He enjoys disk golf and long walks on the beach, especially when he finds $100 buried in the sand, for real, it’s a true story! ------------------------------------------------------------ -----------Marie: Fresh out of high school, Marie decided to pack her bags, leave the cute kindergarten class she taught, and move out to San Diego where in between learning how to surf and ride a long board, she’s been furiously booking the Fight War Tour. Although she has a “cute” and “bubbly” personality, she’s also been described as a “fireball”. She has a habit of saying “just kidding” multiple times a day, a vice that might very well cause her to have to wear her wetsuit to work.

Love is not static...
