i'm a music industry major at northeastern university, graduating in december 2017. i grew up in boston and have stuck around my whole life, so i try to do as much traveling as possible when i get the chance. i also love music - playing and listening and going to shows - reading, writing, hanging with friends, and exploring/walking around places i've never seen

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

it's always nice to meet people in wherever i'm traveling, and plus it makes it easier cost-wise to travel for a student like myself!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once got the chance to play an original song with the boston pops at symphony hall with my siblings, which was pretty incredible

Teach, Learn, Share

i play piano, know plenty about music and music industry stuff, am making my way through stuff about leftist politics and gender/sexuality studies, and of course have random facts i'm willing to share! and in terms of learning, i always am interested in talking and sharing points of view about anything that genuinely interests those i'm around.
