Young gay nonprofit professional looking for cheap ways to travel, meet new people, and dive into a place. I am originally from Little Rock, Arkansas and am currently completing my M.A. at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin through the Trinity Fellowship. My mentor through the LGBT Chamber of Commerce suggested this app to me since I hope to travel more, especially outside of the United States.

Interests

Recently started taking classes in salsa and going out to bachata/salsa nights. I enjoy board games and video games, especially ones that are unique or challenging or in-depth. I love being in nature through hiking, canoeing, climbing, swimming. I enjoy the arts whether in museums or murals or theatrical performances, but I also enjoy good street artists. Professionally, I work with nonprofit organizations but I enjoy volunteering as a way to meet new people, to hear stories, and to understand the heart and the local scene behind an issue. I am not picky about food but I enjoy trying new foods and drinks, especially if I can be wowed.
