About Andrew Bardetti

Andrew is a recent graduate of Boston College where he majored in Political Science and Philosophy. Currently he is living in Mobile, AL and serving the community there as part of the Jesuit Volunteer Corps for the next year. He has a passion for social justice, really bad movies and trying to read every book someone recommends to him. Andrew is a lifelong learner, with some of his best lessons coming from great elementary school teachers, every book in his library, working in constituent services for a U.S. Senator and, most of all, time spent as a day camp counselor for the Massachusetts Audubon Society. He blogs at Living the Fourth in the Real World and as an unofficial collector of quotes, his favorite is by Marcus Aurelius: "Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all of your heart."
