About Me

I grew up in Cochrane Alberta (right outside Calgary), and later went to the University of Calgary studying Commerce. I graduated December 2014 and missed the winter (thank god) by traveling to Central America for 2 months, and then went through the PNW for 1 more month once I got back. And now I'm working downtown at a midstream marketing company!!!

I'm a music nerd, I went to 181 different shows last year (3 festivals does that to you), and I enjoy sports, hiking, books, art, and am pretty much down for anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is good way to meet unique people and pay back some karma for others letting me crash on their couch. And our couches are comfy, so why not put em to use!

Interests

Now that I no longer have to study textbooks for school, my most recent and committing interest has been reading novels again (I read 20 books on my Central American vacation). I also am interested in music, concerts, art, basketball, and rock climbing.
