Hello! I’ve lived in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia my entire life. Growing up In a family that’s content with staying local, I’ve always expressed my hearts desire of traveling. Now that I’m older (and with the convenience of this app) I have the resources and capabilities to finally make these desires a reality!

A little bit about me: I’m passionate and multi-versed in several fields.
• I’ve played guitar since I was 12 and currently play in a wedding/events band. I compose original music in my spare time.
•My main gig is as an Interior Designer at a design build firm in Suwanee, Georgia. I do CAD (Computer Aided Design) drawings for renovations and custom builds.
•I’ve been in love with weightlifting since I was 15 years old. I’m a competitive bodybuilder with aspirations of a pro card.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life is short! I want to make the most of it. Meet people, make friends, see new sights, eat unique foods, share laughs. I want a head full of beautiful memories and interactions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was diagnosed with Crippling Rheumatoid Arthritis in 2016 and had lost 40lbs. Was told my life would never be the same and that both my passions of weightlifting and guitar would be a struggle. I’m now back 100% (and better than ever). I have zero signs of the condition and am grateful to live pain free and do the things I love.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m very much a people person and enjoy hearing various perspectives, no matter how differing from my own. Diversity is beautiful, and I hope to gain more perspectives on life and in a variety of interests. I’m of course happy to reciprocate by sharing the bit of knowledge I know based on my own personal experiences and fields of interest. I’m an open book and happy to discuss most anything. :)
