Recent grad in industrial design. i love poetry, design history, philosophy, and making stuff! I'm somewhat experienced in a workshop environment, and could very well fix something in your home for you.

I like hiking, swimming, and anything outdoors, and will have philosophical/spiritual conversations for hours.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting others around the world and hosting/being hosted, and the mutual trust and humanity shared in that.

Music, Movies, and Books

It’s nice that through years of music listening and developing my tastes, I’ve been able to define some of my favorite genres and I love trading songs with people. It’s wide-ranging but some of my most listened to genres are folk, country, dance pop, edm. Specifically love Dan Reeder, John Prine, Daft Punk, Kate Bush…

I’m kind of a movie buff, and I like a range of films, but adventure and drama strike me the most. No country for old men, diehard, the terminator lol. 3 billboards outside ebbing Missouri, Cloud Atlas, Whiplash, crouching Tiger hidden dragon…
Been wanting to see the Barbie movie

My most read genre is fantasy, but the books I’ve most recently completed are Sacred Economics- Charles Eisenstein, A Wizard of Earthsea- Ursula LeGuin, Man’s Search for Meaning- Victor Frankel. I’m now reading No country for old men
