About Me
Hi! My name's Alex and I'm currently an environmental science student looking to gain new experiences from life while I have the opportunity. I'm an enthusiastic person with an outgoing personality and an eagerness to learn. I'm passionate about the outdoors and especially wildlife conservation, which is the direction in which I'd like my studies to take me. In my spare time I like to read, hike, go to concerts for all kinds of music and spend time with friends as often as possible.
