Overview
About Me
I am currently traveling because I feel the best way to educate yourself is through experience. I'm an independent contractor for a variety of nonprofits covering everything from health to neuroscience to body image. I'm currently in the beginning stages of writing a book, expanding my knowledge of wilderness and therapy, and am currently enrolled in school in Bay Area. I'm energetic, easy to get along with, and a follower of my intuition. I am always thrilled to see new territory where I hope to meet new friends who will walk this journey with me!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
