About Me

Theatre professional, runner, and reader. Majored in International Relations and Theatre Arts, Minored in Political Science.

I'm extremely passionate about acting, social justice, and philosophy. I enjoy going to see live music, poetry readings, plays, musicals, sporting events (basketball is my favorite) and visiting historical places as well.

I love to read, play basketball, run, bike, learn, listen, and meet new people.

I truly believe everyone in the world has something they can contribute to another persons life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always willing to chat if you're curious about things to do in Barcelona, Milwaukee, or Madison.

I have only had a few CS experiences in Barcelona, Chicago and Tennessee and all have been extremely positive!

Interests

When I'm not working I love to read and drink tea. I also enjoy playing pool, darts, cards (euchre, hearts, spades, gin rummy to name a few), board games (scrabble, catan) and good conversation.
