I'm an astrophysicist working at the University of Toronto in Astronomy outreach and education. In my spare time, I read, knit, bike, play the ukulele, collect tattoos, play video games, and enjoy delicious brews with good friends. I love a can in the park, a good patio, or going to the beach on the Island!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
