New to living in the Southwest and loving every minute of it! Excited to explore everything it has to over. I love hiking, reading, and visiting our public lands! My day job consisted of organizing and advocating for energy efficiency and better access to public transit in Arizona.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

While hostels are great, they don't allow you to really experience places through the eyes of a local. I want to do that.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list! I love fantasy, mystery, and classic books. I like all kinds of film. Music? A broad mixture of pop, dad rock, and country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the best days of my life was when I drove to the little town of Rosarito in Baja California, Mexico. One of my best friends and I were staying at a little sea side hotel and we were driving into town to go bar hopping when we saw a sign for ATV rentals. All dressed-up to go out, we ended up driving ATVs through sand dunes along the ocean during sunset. Then we went back to the hotel to clean up and ended up drinking amazing margaritas and salsa dancing all night.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to share life experiences and learn about others. I always want to learn how to cook local dishes as well!

Many laughs, hopefully!
