About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just trying to get out there and experience more of the world!

ABOUT ME

Working as a psychologist in the New Brunswick, NJ area. My job keeps me really busy, but I'm open to accepting surfers should the need arise. I had a great experience surfing in Amsterdam, so I look forward to extending the same to others. I consider myself open minded and love to learn; finding common interests with people is never hard. Easy-going but fun to be around is kinda where my personality falls. I grew up in the south so I've got manners, but no accent, sorry! I'm always up for going out, but I like to maintain a healthy balance in activity.

PHILOSOPHY

I've learned to value of humility. That's not really a personal philosophy, but i think it's a quality that people often overlook.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
If anyone wants to explore New Jersey I'm definitely game!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've surfed a few times and hosted a few folks in Indiana.

Interests

I've studied psychology and music, so anything to do with those fields is right up my alley. I also love singing and swimming. I often find myself just relaxing and getting to know people over quirky conversation topics.
