Current graduate student studying Public Administration at University of Dayton, with a focus on environmental non-profits. I grew up in eastern Tennessee, have also lived in Wyoming, Pennsylvania, and Peru. I've been described as a half-assed hippie (I go on Phish tour but still shower)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy welcoming new friends into my home, showing off the best things about where I live, and hearing about everyone's life experiences. Also, my travels take me across the country and I appreciate the hospitality offered by others, and their viewpoint of their own city. And mostly I just want to get a beer in a new city.

Interests

Hiking, camping, bicycling, rebuilding old bikes, recycling/upcycling, cooking, beer, reading, art, numerous little projects around the house, and generally anything that involves being outside
