Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn as much as I can and enjoy life along the way
ABOUT ME
I received my Bachelors in Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology from Drake University. I worked full-time as a firefighter/paramedic after graduating for 6 years. During that time I realized that I had a calling for medicine, and I applied to medical school. I am now a second year medical student.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I learned about CS from a friend who told me about this website. Through this site he was able to travel inexpensively and learn about life from locals. I hope to take away similar experiences hosting and surfing all around the world.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have not hosted or surfed. I hope that this can change in the near future.
