My favorite quote says, "It is the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting." I couldn't agree more. Throughout the past few years I have realized more than anything else that dreams are what help to move a person from one place to another, both mentally and physically. They provide a spark of motivation that might not be found any other way, often creating a foundation or reasoning for major life changes. Dreams For Dreams is my way of helping to show others the dreams that fill my mind, that motivate my spirit, and that constantly make my life interesting.

On June 2nd, 2008 I will be traveling to a rural community in western Kenya. Because of a dream, I will be working to implement several sustainable projects with a Minnesota based non-profit organization called The Nafula Foundation, whose mission is to improve the lives of rural Kenyan orphans through education, healthcare, and community empowerment initiatives. This opportunity will provide many positive and enriching life experiences that will help me to not only grow professionally, but also as an individual.
