I'm a California native, and I've lived in Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco for long periods of time. I always wanted to see what life was like elsewhere, so I moved to Berlin in 2015 and have been here for 4 years now. I'm enjoying the hub of creative communities and easy travel.

My main personality traits are calmness, creativity and curiosity. (Alliteration only semi-intentional 😁) I'm easygoing and open, and enjoy opening myself to new experiences. I love traveling because it always inspires personal growth, and new perspectives.

I'm a highly aesthetic person and I've worked in fashion and film though I'm currently focused on the performance side. I tend towards comedic acting, but please don't ask me to tell you a joke unless you haven't heard the knock knock joke about the orange. 🍊

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Whenever I travel I like to imagine what it's like to live in that place, and enjoy daily things like going to the grocery store. I've been hosted and hosted many friends and acquaintances wherever I've been, and I think couchsurfing will help me broaden my travels with new friendships in places I might not have had a chance to have a local experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach improv tactics for performance or for use in daily life.
