Hello everyone (but let's be honest, probably just my mom)!

My name is Mackenzie and I am a freshman here at Hawai'i Pacific University. I was born in San Diego, CA, but I have lived most my life in Mattoon, IL. I am currently studying International Relations after being inspired by my time as a Rotary Youth Exchange student to South Korea for my junior year of high school.

I am so excited to share this adventure of mine with all of you, so stay tuned for the many antics (and anecdotes) that are sure to come.
