About Me

Hey y'all, I'm an aspiring game designer/illustrator living in Philly with my wonderful partner! Sometimes we travel together! I love traveling and dogs. I'm also pretty handy so if you need any quick things done I'm happy to work for my keep!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I try to travel as much as I can, and that's expensive. If I can't stay with friends I try to find the next best couch, or find a way to camp...

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Very into Funk and 80's Electro at the moment.
Movies: I'll watch anything twice, I love sci fi and thinkers
Books: I think Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is amazing, I adore most fantasy and appreciate nonfiction way more than I used to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked and trainhopped across the US for 3 months!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll teach any of the tabletop games I bring with me and anything I know!
I want to learn about the world and the people in it!
I'd be willing to share my own experiences and stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've worked as a handyperson and carpenter for the past 3 years, I was a bartender before that, and I've been a landscaper as well the whole time. I am very resourceful and can help where I can (though I may need tools...).
