About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore how art can change the world

ABOUT ME

Theatre has the power to unite, communicate, connect, give voice to the voiceless, educate, and probe. Using theatre as a tool in this way is something I am currently pursuing in my professional career. My lifelong intrigue with theatre has stretched far beyond my own cultural and personal background. Through my experience studying theatre abroad, establishing a socially active theatre ensemble and my oral history research projects, I understand how the transformational capacity of theatre transcends the single performance. This has piqued my interest in using theatre as a means to facilitate educational outreach and community development.

I love to dance for fun. Maybe have a dance off or two, if the challenge arises. But don't be scared, I am just a fun-loving easy going person that wants to meet people and have funny interactions.

I am from Chicago which is the best city in the States. If anyone says otherwise, they are lying. I was born there so I may be a little biased (just a little). I went to Beloit College in Wisconsin which is a really fun school with lots of dance parties. Most of my friends are from all over the world. That was the first time where I had the chance to be introduced to so many cultures.

I was studied in Budapest, Hungary and Dublin, Ireland where I studied theater.

PHILOSOPHY

I live life without regrets, for the most part. I live in the moment. I live to build solid relationships. I live to love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It has been really wonderful. There is just something about travelers that I love.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent the last month in Morocco. I was traveling with an amazingly wonderful Australian women and we saw the beauty of people and Moroccan culture. We traveled in to the Sahara, singing songs and climbing dunes. I want to find other travelers that want to explore countries in Asia.

Teach, Learn, Share

Now as I am traveling, I am getting deep into arts and crafts. I make jewelry and postcards as I travel. I paint drawings to remember where I have been. I either give them away or keep them for memory. I also am a beginner fire poi spinner.
