About Me

CURRENT MISSION

go for it.

ABOUT ME

I'm an art school graduate trying to figure out what to do next. I love fashion and hope to get my own label up and going--I make clothes a lot. I get really excited by over-the-top performance and installation art, dancing, concerts, colors, fabric. I'm a chronic exaggerator, so phrases like "it was so amazing I shit my pants!" are not uncommon coming from me. I want to be a force for good in the world, hopefully through my relationships with others. I love a good beer, thoughtful observations on life, observational humor, and serious dance parties.

PHILOSOPHY

real talks are my main goal in life. and spontaneous fun-time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couch surfing sounds like a great way to meet locals in new places and get a real feel for the culture, etc. I'd love to offer my couch at a later date, when I have one!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Slept in a basement for 2 weeks one summer--terrible. My clothes grew mold. But I have hope for the future!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Denmark for almost 2 months for school, and it was awesome. I'd love to do it again, for much longer.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can knit, sew, cook most things, play the flute, throw a baseball, dye fabric in a washing machine, draw, swim. I'd love to learn how to take great photos, play piano, slaughter my dinner, design my own fashion line, and drive a manual transmission.
