I'm a recent graduate of MIT. I majored in Earth Science, Computer Science, and American (US) Studies. I am in the process of moving across the country to Newport Beach, CA.

My interests and hobbies include music, art (digital and watercolor), cooking, fire spinning, spelunking, and chilling at the beach (or on the Charles, as the case may be in Boston).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

At the moment, I'm hoping to crash with someone in OC for a few days while I figure out my future housing plans and sign a lease elsewhere. In the future, I'd love to host guests if my new place allows.

I previously couchsurfed a couple times while backpacking in Western Europe.

Music, Movies, and Books

warning: I wrote this section 3 years ago but it's still accurate enough that I'm not going to edit it

I've recently gotten super into folk/anarcho-punk. I'm also a fan of indie rock.

A handful of favorite artists (yeah it's many different genres): Pat the Bunny, alt-J, Hozier, Grimes, Pink Floyd, Portugal the Man, Janelle Monae, K. Flay, David Bowie, Arcade Fire.

I don’t really watch movies, and I no longer have time to read books :( but this summer I plan on brushing up on canon Western philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did geologic fieldwork in the rural Indian Himalayas for 7 weeks in Summer 2018. It was my first time traveling internationally. I rode to the top of the highest motorable pass in the world (~18,000 ft/5400 m), took selfies with camels, learned some Ladakhi, and stayed with a local family in a rural village with limited electricity and running water.
