I'm a grad student at New York University studying social psychology and neuroscience. I write poems, I make collages, I play drums in rock bands and I used to play trumpet for a few years back in the day. I get really into the music I'm into.

I'm lucky to have world-traveling parents and I tagged along on my fair share of family vacations during childhood. My more recent trips include Copenhagen, Mexico City, and Amsterdam. I like to bicycle around!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met up with people through CS before, while I was studying in Lyon, France. I've also surfed in Stockholm and had a great time. Soon I will be free to host!

Interests

Things I like or care about that I dedicate some of my life to: music, poetry about birds, visual art, housing justice & tenants rights, becoming emotionally invested in TV shows and then talking about them with my friends, cats.
