Hello! I come from a small suburb of Wisconsin in the United States. Currently, I am studying business at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My dad is often quoted saying, "Get busy living, or get busy dying." I take that quote with me in my daily endeavors, as I set out to make an impression on everyone I meet - making them happier, and making the world a better place, one smile at a time.

My passions include exploring the world, playing beach volleyball or a round of golf, and occasionally being wrapped up in a film or television series.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently, I am studying abroad in Europe. Several family and friends have spoken very highly of CouchSurfing and I would love to utilize such an influential network in my travels around Europe, using CS in hopes to build amazing connections, dive into different cultures, and share smiles across the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

After my first year of college, I was fortunate enough to volunteer in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, USA. The company where my summer job was at the time sponsored the trip. When I wasn't volunteering I was fortunate enough to explore national parks such as Yellowstone, the Grand Teton Mountains, the Black Hills, and the Theodore National Park.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A smile, an open mind, and eagerness to learn.
