I am a teacher and after school coordinator at a school in Chicago. When not teaching or lesson planning, I love to garden, read and bake. I grew up in DC and the suburbs, and fell in love with city living. I have been in Chicago for almost 5 years now and have found a true home here. I have been incredibly lucky in being able to travel a myriad of places because of my families work for the state department. I can't wait to see what's going on in your neighborhood!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I adore people. I love getting to know them and having long conversations. In addition I'm an artist so having the ability to get to know more people and places inspires my work.
