ABOUT ME

I'm an oral surgery resident in Dallas. Grew up in KC. I spend most of my time outside of school reading, exercising and exploring the outdoors. I also really enjoy cooking/baking. Specifically I bake a lot of my own bread and brew a lot of coffee. I love having conversations and getting to know people. It's also hard to beat coffee and a good book :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I don't have a place I can host a surfer, I'm more of a surfer myself for now. But I could show someone around the area and go for a coffee if someone ever wanted a tour of the city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch surfing experience was with a friend in Colorado and that's how I discovered how awesome couch surfing can be. Was definitely a little timid about it that first time, but now I think it's the greatest thing and hope to do more once I'm out of school.

Interests

In my "free time" I ride/race bikes (that you pedal) and try to get outdoors. I'm also kind of a tv/movie fan and follow quite a few shows. I dislike chain restaurants and love the local scene and home-cooked meals.

Music, Movies, and Books

Current favorite movie is Inception. Any surgery or astronomy book will fascinate me. Music-wise I'd say I like a variety.

Winter mountaineering in Colorado is still at the top of my list.
