I grew up in Santa Cruz, California and also went to the university there. I recently moved to Oregon and I am loving the mellow Pacific Northwest life. I am a Speech Language Pathologist for children in elementary school. I love empowering people to communicate effectively, and I love what I do!

I like running, working out, reading, trying good beer and wine, cooking, learning more about gardening, getting coffee or beers with friends and sitting in the sun. I am also a musician. I play guitar, sing and write songs and have played solo and with a band. My friends and family are the most important thing to me, and I love connecting with all kinds of people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My boyfriend and I love living in Oregon and we would love to share some our favorite things with travelers! We also plan to do some traveling of our own in the near future and love to make connections.
