I grew up in the Adirondack mountains located in upstate New York, and although I have a deep love for my roots at home, I have also grown to love exploring different environments. I have lived in Thailand and Kenya, and look forward to exploring the rest of the world. As a conservation biologist, I hope I can bring a new perspective to the table. I love getting to know new people and swapping stories. Music is important to me and so are my relationships with people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to build relationships with people from different places and to learn from one another.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I waterski each year on Christmas morning in upstate New York, often in freezing weather! All well worth it for the hot shower afterwards and the exhilaration of a chilly ski on a winter day.
