CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Born and raised in Austin, TX.

I like riding my bike around the city at night, cooking, friends+beer, friends+wine+cheese, windows, forests.

Right now I'm working on my PhD at Cornell and enjoying gorgeous Ithaca.

PHILOSOPHY

Understand and experience beauty.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not too much yet, but I'd like to change that.

Interests

Generally, I'm interested in things that I know about. I'm interested in knowing more about more things. I've wanted to be a biologist for most of my life, and I'm currently doing a PhD in evolutionary biology to turn my obsession into a career (hopefully).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've stood in the middle of an abandoned airfield in south Texas, and listened to Shostakovich's 4th Symphony loudly while storm clouds threw lightning bolts in the distance.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hm...I can play piano, teach how to read music, identify North American and Panamanian birds, identify insect families.
