I'm a senior at Princeton, studying at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. My focus within the school is environmental policy, and I'm currently doing my thesis on the environmental policy implications of China's Belt and Road Initiative. I've lived all over the United States, including Illinois, Utah, and New Hampshire, but I've been living in Roseville, California for 17 years now. Travel is super important to me, and I love discussing the places I've been and want to go to with like-minded people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

As mentioned, I'm interested in all things environment, as well as other cultures (particularly in China). I also love volleyball (been playing on competitive indoor teams for 8 years now), cartoon sketching, going to concerts, and travel photography
