About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm entering my fourth (and final!) year of medical school in the summer of 2017, which involved me going to a new hospital every month! It's exciting, stressful, and everything in between. I'll be submitting applications to be an emergency room doctor when I graduate.

My background is varied -- I was a theater & exercise science major at UMass in 2012. After that I couch-surfed across Europe, hiked across Vermont, and worked on an ambulance full-time.

PHILOSOPHY

Being immersed in education for virtually my entire life has really led me to two philosophies. #1: It's healthy to question pretty much everything. #2: People ultimately just wanna be happy, so it's worth fostering that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hoping to find some places to stay for my fourth year medical school rotations!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some incredible people when I went to Europe. All of my hosts were wonderful and more importantly, gave me a taste of the culture of the area.

I also took an impromptu trip down to New Orleans and couch surfed there for a few days. New Orleans in July -- not ideal, but my host was excellent.

Interests

I'm an amateur photographer, avid hiker, traveler, actor, wanna-be foodie, and student!
