I'm starting in the Masters of Social Work program at the University of Washington in the fall, so I'm trying to get as much traveling in as possible beforehand. I love talking about music and movies and am always down to go to a concert or play a board game. As long as you don't mind almost endless references to The Simpsons, we'll get along just fine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Places are cool, but people are better. I love seeing a new location through somebody else's eyes.

Music, Movies, and Books

The most recent book I loved was "The Argonauts" by Maggie Nelson. All time favorite remains "One Hundred Years of Solitude."

I still turn the volume up during the end of the Lost In Translation to see if I can figure out what Bill Murray is saying.

TV show? There's always money in the banana stand.

I'd sell my soul to see the Talking Heads in concert.

I only eat pizza rolls.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw a kid with a Nerf gun hit his shin on, and then hurtle over, a park bench while running from people pretending to be zombies. He landed on his face. Everyone went "OooooOOOH." When the zombies went to go check on his writhing body crumpled on the grass, he turned around and shot them with darts.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make the perfect soft serve ice cream cone. If you don't know what ice cream is, I can probably teach you that, too. Probably.
