Founder/CEO of Thought Collective, an ethical fashion company offering training classes and employment to women in Tanzania.

Social Worker and current full-time online grad student on the road ⛺️🚌

From Los Angeles, CA, living in Austin, TX and Arusha, Tanzania, currently traveling in a van all over the US with my girlfriend.

Travel and adventure junkie, total activist and liberal, outgoing as all hell, spontaneous discussion over a warm fire and good beer. Super easy going, the biggest goof ball, adaptable and approachable.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Van life can be lonely, it’s nice to meet people along the way to make the journey feel more “at home.” Also, you know, the van. Needs a solid driveway to park in every so often.
