My friends say I am friendly, extroverted, and sometimes a bit of an over-sharer. After growing up and attending university in California, I spent a few years living in New York. I now travel often for work and couchsurf when possible! It's certainly my favorite way to travel.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always been passionate about fostering community, whether that be through something as engaged as volunteering or something as minimal as walking down the street with a smile. I am passionate about the mission of couchsurfing, and I hope to share this with you!

Interests

I love good music, good whiskey and wine, and interesting conversations! I work in finance/economics, so if these topics interests you, feel free to ask away! If not, I also love to read, explore, travel (obviously), patronize and practice the arts - both performing (music, theater, etc.) and graphic art (enjoy going to galleries and museums), and play sports (football/soccer, tennis, running, biking, yoga, swimming, squash, ... you name it).
