About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To fight crime, but only by night. By day, to mild-manneredly report on major metropolitan news.

ABOUT ME

I'm 29 and single. I'm a former Peace Corps volunteer and 2-time graduate of Florida State University. I'm currently working as a legal writer at a firm downtown. I write more interesting things on the side, and I am preparing to go to grad school soon to study public policy and public administration. I have a dog named Lucy. Red is my favorite color, my favorite movie is "Joe vs. the Volcano," my lucky number is 13 and The Green Bay Packers are the greatest sports team of all time.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe bacon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For right now, I am interested in CS only as a surfer, but plan on offering up my own couch as soon as things are a little more stable and permanent for me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in Den Hague, Netherlands and in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I hosted a Danish/Swiss couch surfer at my Peace Corps residence in Ain Leuh, Morocco as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once saw a man eat his own head.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to turn the gas way up on someone else's lighter so it freaks them out when they go to light a cigarette. I'd like to learn how to spell Connecticut. Oh man, did I just do it right? No underscore. Nevermind I guess.
