ABOUT ME

I'm laid back and adventurous. I love cooking with friends, soccer, and bike riding, and I geek out about anything photography-related. I've spent the 6 past years working in education, initially as a photography and social advocacy teacher in Washington, DC and Arkansas. More recently, I have taught photography in Armenia and New York, worked as a college counselor in Texas, and have worked as a school administrator and basketball coach in Brooklyn. I currently live in NYC, and work at an education non-profit.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great so far - I have surfed in Port Angeles, Washington in between camping trips in Olympic National Park and in Little Rock, Arkansas while I was working in the Delta and the Ozarks. Both experiences were great, and I really enjoyed getting to know my hosts and exploring both places.
