About Me:I was raised in a tiny town in Indiana called "Wingate" and moved to Arizona when I was 11. I have a twin brother and a little sister. I've spent majority of my life playing baseball and basketball and cooking. I love comedy, and one of my life goals is to do stand-up successfully.

What I do: After working with peta2 for a number of years in a number of positions, I'm now the intern supervisor for the PETA Foundation. Interested in interning? Learn more about being an intern and how to apply!

I Love:Arizona summers, corny jokes, the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles, Salvador Dali paintings, vinyl records, good music, the U.K., traveling, movies, brunch, asparagus, chocolate, baking, math, pugs (well, all animals), meeting awesome activists, and anything that involves helping animals.

I Dislike: Negativity.

Why You Went Vegan: I took the plunge after accepting a bet. My brother went vegetarian for a girl, I started making fun of him, told some friends, and they bet me I couldn't do it. After a short time of being vegetarian, I decided that I should go vegan and do everything I could to help animals.

How Did You Get Involved With peta2:After attending a conference years ago, I signed up to be a peta2 Street Team member and started tabling local events. I did that until I turned 21 and started touring with peta2, and I have been living the dream ever since.

Random Fact: I was the president of my high school's Sports Medicine Club.
