ABOUT ME

Hello Couch Surfers!

I"m a grad student at Johns Hopkins. I love to swim, try new things, meet new people, talk with old people, and eat Chocolate Hazelnut Spread.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is an adventure!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been couch-surfing once (so far!), and I also went to a CS dinner when I lived near Orlando. Good times.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with my old roommate on the couch of a lovely young lady in Vienna in spring 2009. We were there only for one night, but it was a good experience talking with our hosts and staying somewhere new. Thank you!

The club that I was president of at my home university helped this couple find a home.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I'm learning to be a geneticist. I have some background in neuroscience and social psychology. My favorite topic of study is where the three fields intersect.

I know how to knit, do the butterfly stroke, shoot a shotgun (at clay pigeons only), and play the flute.
