About Me

I like meeting new people. For work I interview people and tell their stories in a newspaper. I also like music and reading. I am a huge San Antonio Spurs fan, and love talking about basketball.

As of August 2017 I will be a resident of New Orleans, where I'm going to work with a non-profit teaching people how to live more sustainable lives through the use of rain barrels, vegetable gardens, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
