I was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA where I lived my whole life. My work experience has included customer service, sales promotions and a short career on the project management side of construction after graduating from university.

I moved to Daegu, Korea in 2011 where I currently teach English to elementary students. Since my move, I've had the opportunity to travel around Asia.

I like to meet new people and experience different cultures and food. I'm better in smaller groups because I prefer more personal interactions.

I enjoy experiencing local culture (especially FOOD!!) and meeting new people. We all have something new to share, right?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet locals or expats to give me a better feel of the local community that I would not be able to experience if I were to explore on my own.
