Overview
About Me
I love where I live, but I also enjoy seeing new places. I frequent the mountains, regularly hiking, snowshoeing or snowboarding. I read a lot of books; Malcolm Gladwell is my favorite author currently. Contentedly single. I go to a lot of Meetups for board games. Also recently got into Dungeons and Dragons. I play in the Denver Ultimate Frisbee scene.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I usually just stay at hotels when I travel, or my vehicle if a road trip, but it enhances the travel experience to meet new people and I think couch surfing is a great way to do that.

Teach, Learn, Share
I love psychology, sociology, philosophy, and any subject that deals with why we do the things we do. I work hard to be empathetic and open minded toward others points of few, and thoroughly enjoy discussing topics with people who disagree with my viewpoints.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I enjoy getting to know new people and learning about how they live their life. If you want to hear stories from my life as well, I am an extremely open person. If you want to play card or board games I'm always down for that as well. I also believe it's important to push ourselves to do new things, so if you want to go do something I've never done, most likely I'll be pumped to join you.
