I live a pretty quiet life, but am definitely open to excitement! I love both cooking & exercising (I bike just about everywhere I go), play a mean game of Tetris, and find people and their quirks fascinating, especially through the lens of language. Ask me about sociolinguistic variation!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people! That's pretty much the crux of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favourite band, movie, and book are, respectively, Carbon Leaf, The Incredibles, and Weslandia. I'm young at heart, and a huge fan of children's media.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I won a conference-wide poetry slam as a high school senior. Sounds pretty tame, but ask me about the story sometime; there's a lot more to it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Yeah, I'm down with all those things. (Not really certain I understand the prompt...?)
