Born and raised in southeastern VA. Schooled in New England. Now making my life out west working in healthcare. I've traveled a decent bit, but these days I'm mostly stuck in the hospital and clinic with work things.

When I'm not working, I'm an avid mushroom hunter/cultivator, waterfall chaser, and urban explorer. I've also intermittently been a hobby painter, costume designer, and rockhound. I'm an open book with LOTS of interesting stories to tell and I want to hear yours too. Better yet, let's MAKE some new ones together!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I love to make new friends that maybe I'll get to visit in their own home country one day.
My mom always said it'll either be a good time or a good story. I'm looking for some of each!

Previously hosted with my multi-person house share, but currently unable host. I hope to host again soon!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coordinated a summer retreat for homeless LGBT youth to get mentorship in the arts.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good low-maintenance company, the guarantee I won't steal your stuff or take advantage of you, and a great excuse to get out and see your town through the eyes of a visitor!
