Home: Seattle Nimratz!

Age: 17 (Birthday: March 18th)

Favorite Convention So Far:
     International Convention 2004 in Chicago.  With Regional Convention 2005 in Seattle running a close second.

Favorite USY Moment So Far:
     I envision three that all tie for first — putting on Dead Sea mud with Jenny, winning chapter of the year at Regional Convention 2005, and opening ceremonies of International Convention 2004. After that highlights include singing with Maddy at the Encampment ’04 talent show, spooning, long talks with Rachel and Melissa, candy wrestling, watching Tamara give her slideshow on Poland/Israel Pilgrimage at Kinnus ’03 and knowing that would be me someday.

Favorite Quotes:

    "The hardest to learn was the least complicated."
            -- Emily Saliers (Indigo Girls)
 
    "If you aim for the stars, you'll hit the treetops. If you aim for the treetops, you'll hit the fence."
            -- Unknown
 
    "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."
            -- Margaret Mead
 
    "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."
            -- Eleanor Roosevelt

Been to Israel?
     USY Poland/Israel Pilgrimage Group 4 ’05! It was honestly one of the most fantastic things I have ever done. I fell in love with Israel and 43 wonderful kids and literally had the time of my life.

Extra-Curricular Activities:
     Singing in the Northwest Girlchoir, acting, watching movies, playing ultimate Frisbee (except that I’m pretty bad), traveling, dancing, karaoke, learning how to do cartwheels, reading excellent books (I highly recommend Slaughterhouse 5 and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince), tanning in the occasional Seattle sun, chillin’ on the beach, wandering around big cities, looking at old photos, calling USY friends, debating hot political topics, and more than anything else—USY.

Anything you want to say about USY:
     I LOVE USY!  USY has absolutely changed my life, and I owe so much of my identity and my happiness to the people I have met and the things I have experienced because of my involvement.

      
USY is love
