About Me

Hello!

I am currently a biology/psychology student at UNC Chapel Hill. I am a zany human who is both a hard cynic and a starry-eyed idealist. I enjoy uncomfortable but meaningful conversation, PUNS, casual debate, the color green, top shelf tequila, listening to people talk about what they love, walking in the woods, wingin' it, learning new words, making nihilistic jokes, and finding the good in people. I do not enjoy raw tomatoes by themselves, or inauthenticity.

I am currently en route to become a pharmacological researcher or an environmental scientist. I make jokes when I'm nervous.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It changes at different times for different reasons. I enjoy showing people my favorite spots and I also enjoy seeing a new town in the eyes of its natives. I think CS is ultimately an excellent project for exchanging ideas, culture, and experiences. Long live diversity and adventure!
