I'm a PhD student at the School of Design at Carnegie Mellon University.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot on a meager student budget, and always eager to meet new people and make new friends!

Interests

Reading science fiction and fantasy, watching cartoons, playing video games (MOBAs especially), and cooking (I love to cook and will gladly cook delicious food for anyone).
