Please Note: In the future, Swap Bot newbies will not be permitted to join swaps that I coordinate. I've had too many problems with no-sends during my swaps. If there is a problem with this, contact me thru the swap-bot form.

I am a 24 year old junior in college at a small (about 900 students) private college in Montana. I'm studying Environmental Studies and Political Science, and hope to graduate next Fall (December 2008).

Here at Swap-Bot, I enjoy hosting swaps, as well as participating in them. So far, I have coordinated 5 (completed) swaps (the Disposable Camera Swap, the Comic Book Swap, the Earth Day Organics Swap, the Disposable Camera Swap, and the Travel Theme Flat Goodies Swap).

I'm not really a crafty sort. Instead, I enjoy swapping challenges, exchanging random goodies from faraway places, and collecting stationary and stickers to use with my penpal from Calgary.
