I work at a hospital near downtown Dallas. I worked in Belize and Mali, West Africa for the Peace Corps before returning to the U.S. to get my Master's degree and work in Supply Chain Management. I love running, biking and being outdoors in general. I have been off couchsurfing for several years since I lived abroad, but decided to try it out again to host couchsurfers in DFW. I'll try to host if I'm available, if not my roommate may be able to. There may be some days I'm busy this summer studying for my CSSGB certification exam.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To help out couchsurfers that need a place to crash of course! I traveled and stayed with several hosts in Spain, France and Italy and had a great experience with them all. While I lived in Mali had visitors from France and Poland that were nice and I enjoyed showing them around my village. My house should always have room for one or two, just make sure to notify me at least a month in advance if you will be coming through. Also, please call a week or so ahead of time so I can make sure to be in town for your arrival.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is a big passion of mine I'm always trying to find the newest thing to listen to, so usually listen to my "Discover Weekly" on Spotify for new songs/artists. I've been to hundreds of live shows and festivals as well and have tickets to Betty Who and Katy Perry later this year.

My favorite genre for movies and books is horror, I watch and read a lot of thrillers. I also enjoy classics like Hemingway. But, my favorite book has to be Lonesome Dove.
