CURRENT MISSION

Just taking it one day at a time! My first priority is finishing my MS degree!

ABOUT ME

I was born in Elkins Park Pennsylvania but I spent a good portion of my life in Tokyo, Japan. I went to high school there and it generated a love of traveling and of meeting new people from all over the world. I ended up going to college in Delaware and I got a degree in Environmental Engineering. I now work for a global environmental consulting firm.

PHILOSOPHY

"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." The Golden Rule.

Don't have any couchsurfing experiences (other than crashing with existing friends) but I think it sounds awesome!

Music, Movies, and Books

Oh man, there are really too many to list. My current favorite music includes: Eric Himan, Jay Brannan, Chris Garneau, Christopher Dallman, Rachael Sage, and many others. I love old 80's movies like The Breakfast Club, Who's That Girl, and Satisfaction, but I also enjoy Sci-Fi/Fantasy and action films. I love comedies too, but they're getting boring these days, especially romantic comedies. I also love to read but don't have enough time these days. I like fantasy novels but also classics like Shakespeare.

Teach, Learn, Share

I make Jam so I could teach people how to do that!
