I am originally from Denver, Colorado, but recently moved to Ketchikan, Alaska.

I’m a new lawyer and I defend indigent clients who are facing criminal charges.

Outside of work, I love to hike, fish, camp, ski, and anything else that’s outdoors!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am always looking to meet new, cool and interesting people and most people who couchsurf fit the bill!

I have had the opportunity to stay with others and benefit from their homes and communities. Now I’m hoping to give back a bit! I live in a small apartment and am happy to give someone the bed while I stay at a friends house. I also have a small sailboat that one or two people could live on for a bit!

This community really is a special place and I hope to get more involved in the future.
