About Me

Hi couchsurfers! I'm from Massachusetts and I recently finished up graduate school in Boston for sociology (which I love and will definitely talk about if you're interested). I've also collected fun jobs over the years. I've worked in two national parks, on a food truck, in the AmeriCorps NCCC program, in Thailand (teaching English for a year,) and dog walking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love, love, love meeting new people. Really, I can run off the high of a good conversation for days.
