I am an artist with a Bachelors of Fine art in painting and a minor in Art History. I'm currently pursuing my Masters (MFA) in Painting at the University of Memphis.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to explore and travel for possible places to call home once I complete my Masters degree.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Just about any genre of movies especially foreign, comedy, and drama.
Books: the Autobiography of Helmut Newton, in praise of folly by Erasmus, Purity of the Heart by Kierkegaard, the Art Spirit by Robert Henri, and just about everything written by Somerset Maugham and Hemingway
Music: anything, literally

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2013-2014 I wrote a grant that I got awarded that sent me down to Panama to photograph the Kuna and Embera lndians. That was fun :)
