About Me

- I moved recently from Santa Barbara, CA where I did my undergrad to the United Kingdom. I completed a MSc in Sport Science in the U.K. and am now living and working as a volleyball coach in Denmark.
- Before moving to the UK, I spent two years working in emergency medicine first on an ambulance in the 911 system and then in the Emergency Department. I've witnessed some pretty amazing and not so amazing things, but it was all so rewarding for me. I can't get enough of helping people!
- In the future, I plan on going to medical school after my volleyball days are over.
- MOST IMPORTANTLY -- I live to travel!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new friends and have amazing experiences with them. Each time I've traveled, I have come home not only with unforgettable experiences but had the pleasure of sharing those times with people I had met maybe hours before. There is nothing quite like meeting someone for the first time, and becoming best friends with them overnight.

I think couchsurfing will be the perfect way to meet people both through hosts and hangouts, and I know that it'll make my travel experience all the more rewarding!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite book: The next one I start reading. I do really enjoy the Harry Potter books though.

I have a long list of favorite movies, but top on that list are
- Lord of the Rings, The Dark Knight, Shawshank Redemption, Shutter Island, I Love you Man
(the list never ends..)

Favorite Music: I enjoy multiple genres of music on a daily basis but some good class rock never gets old for me. I always enjoy a nice country playlist, and sometimes I just need to turn on some 80s and have a good time.

Teach, Learn, Share

- I have a good chunk of travel experience in some unique parts of the world, as well as a ton of crazy ambulance and emergency department stories to share.
- I love a good talk about the latest medical research, sleep studies and anything to do with human nutrition and metabolism
-I am an active adventure photographer and would love the opportunity to show you my work and my methods. In addition, I am excited to learn about anything photography styles that you may be able to show me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

-I am happy to cook! I can't promise you that I'll be preparing five course meals, but I can definitely share some ideas, plan meals, and help out
-I am eager to swap traveling stories and would love to share my experiences with you. At the very least, I might be able to give you any new ideas as to where to visit next or what to do there.
-Overall, I'm happy to help out in any way that I can, and at the very least will be a flexible, easy going guest.
