I am a reporter at a daily newspaper here in Missouri. I grew up in Denver surrounded by beautiful mountains, so I never expected to stay in the Midwest when I came here for college, but I fell in love and stayed around even after I finished graduate school. I am learning how to cook, and starting to travel more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Columbia, Mo. and would love to show people some of the things I think makes it so special. I hope to meet other people who can help me see the wonderful places where they live!
