CURRENT MISSION

Adventure. Fire. Passion. Bring It.

ABOUT ME
Currently I am back home in ATL and i work as a Development Manager at a nonprofit that empowers urban young adults to reach their potential! Below is what I used to be doing.

Hey! I just graduated from the University of Georgia and I am in the process of figuring out this adventure we call life.I recently found rock climbing...and I have to say- It is ADDICTING!I really want to take about 4 months of my life to travel out West and rock climb, adventure, slaughter fear, live out my faith, and figure myself out! Let me know if you would like to join. I LOVE to DANCE, and teaching Hip Hop dance and Zumba is my passion!!Everything I love to do, I want to use to set people on fire with joy. There is nothing that makes me feel more accomplished than seeing someone free. I thank Jesus everyday for giving me the insane I think my speakers are about to blow out kind of HIP-HOP beats to keep me sane. I am a Hip Hop Dance and Zumba Instructor and my signature is screaming "Sexy People don't get tired...Sexy people shake it," through a Britney Spears Mic. Words cannot explain the joy I feel teaching my dance classes as I see worries literally melt of girls faces as they lose themselves freely and confidently in dance. I am a hopeless romantic and I love my friends, family, and laughing more than anything! I love getting drenched in the rain and dancing in it. IT reminds me of grace. I love seeing bridges because they remind me of Jesus. I have crazy triplet brothers that are 3 yrs old, and I do have a favorite! People who know me best describe me as a sweet slightly insane package of craziness that laughs too much and DANCES like a black girl. But underneath it all... I'm just a girl who tries to live her life for Jesus everyday but always seems to fall short. But that's why Jesus is so amazing! His forgiving grace has found me just as I am!

PHILOSOPHY

I love Jesus, and I want to show the world what it means to truly know Him. I want people to know that they are precious and that they were created to have joy to the fullest and ADVENTURE....That their dreams were given to them to be fulfilled. I want to
know their stories, and I want to tell them that they are not alone. I want them to know that they are seen and loved.

I desire nothing more than this:that you would know that anything in me that inspires you, gives you hope,brings you alive,or invites to your face that beautiful smile,is the life of Jesus in me and the grace he has given me to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just joined the community, but I am so exited to get involved. I would absolutely love to host. I am hoping to find a travel partner to road trip across the west coast with me for a few months from August 21st 2011- to Decemberish. I will be partnering with Petzl as a grassroots ambasador, ENO hammocks, Unique Outfitters, and Sherpa Adventure Gear! The plan is to rock climb, go on amazing adventures, back pack,learn from amazing new people, and visit a few Christian ministries to serve people along the way. I am hoping to couch surf my way through, and serve and learn from different passionate unique people.
