CURRENT MISSION

World peace one couch at a time.

ABOUT ME

I grew up on the east coast and lived in various cities. I played a lot of sports and guitar, continue to play tennis and bike and social dance, hike and ski when I can. I enjoy being with people, so I chose to be a communication professor to study and teach about human interaction. I think one of our greatest gifts is the ability and opportunity to connect with people. I like to travel and meet new people, and I'm excited about the opportunities to fuel this passion through couch surfing.

PHILOSOPHY

Connect with others through authentic listening and speaking and we can make the world a better place.
