About Me

I am a 29-year old American from Philadelphia. I studied American History at the University of Pennsylvania before working as a management consultant for a couple years in Washington DC. I then decided to leave my job to pursue a 6-month solo backpacking trip through South America. Since returning to Philadelphia in 2016, I've been working as a Brand Strategist at an advertising agency.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love experiencing new cultures and meeting new people.

Interests

I love sports and traveling. I am a die-hard Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies, and 76ers fan and have traveled extensively across six continents.
