My name is Brooke Billadeau and I grew up on a farm outside of Parshall, North Dakota. I earned my Bachelor's of Science in Psychology and Neuroscience from North Dakota State University in Fargo, and my Associate's Degree in Website Design and Development from North Dakota State College of Science.
I love learning new things and meeting new people (even though I'm an introvert). Because of this, I have a wide range of hobbies and passions. I enjoy boxing, martial arts, running and snowboarding, as well as being an avid reader, painter, gamer, and chef. I'm also a huge dork! I enjoy anime, conventions, and Dungeons and Dragons (elf rogue/ranger checking in)!
But my biggest passion is traveling. I never pass up an opportunity to go camping and hiking. I've been to multiple US States in order to work towards my goal of visiting every US National Park. So far, I've been whitewater rafting in Colorado, hiking in North Dakota, and kayaking in Minnesota. Montana is my next planned camping trip.
But my travels aren't limited to the United States. I've been to Canada and Mexico with family, England and Italy on study abroads, and Portugal on my first solo backpacking trip. Gibraltar is my next planned backpacking adventure!
