I grew up in Minneapolis, MN and graduated from North Dakota State University with a Social Studies Education degree. I am currently in my first year of teaching social studies at the secondary school in Cripple Creek, CO. My favorite job was being a camp counselor at Camp Nathanael in MN.

Music, Movies, and Books

Folk, acoustic guitar based singer songwriter, indie rock.
I like the Cohen brothers, Quentin Taratino, and Wes Anderson. I dig any well-done movie with good acting and an original plot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A 5 week road trip in MT, WA, OR, CA, UT, and CO. I never stayed in a hotel. I saw a lot of great sights, but my favorite part was all the people I met.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a social studies teacher. I like reading and listening to podcasts.
I love learning about anything and everything, especially just by listening to people that I meet when I'm out and about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will do cleaning inside or outside. I am willing to help out with many jobs in return for a place to stay. I play stringed instruments, piano, drums, and sing.

Countries I’ve Lived In
