ABOUT ME

I'm a recent college grad, living in Chicago and attempting to get my career rollin' while still enjoying the day-to-day of life in a great city.

PHILOSOPHY

Live with purpose.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new to the CouchSurfing world but excited to both host surfers and be a surfer myself. My place isn't huge, but I live in a great neighborhood just north of "the loop" (downtown Chicago) with easy access to public transit. I love showing people around my favorite places in this great city and meeting interesting people with interesting stories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Happy to host and excited to surf.

Interests

I work in the theater, but more than theater, I'm interested in great stories, no matter the medium.
