Hi there! Born, raised, and college-educated in Wisconsin, but I set my sights for warmer weather. Have lived in LA for seven years, busting it in the entertainment industry.

I just completed my first feature film as lead producer, and hopefully the first of many! Mountains, books, and good people. LA is great, but I try to get out as often as possible!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My career hasn't afforded me international travel yet, so I love roadtripping, visiting friends, and exploring the beautiful USA for now. I love meeting new people and learning new perspectives. Trading stories, cultures, and experiences is vital to all of us.
