I work in Center City Philadelphia.

I'm still figuring out exactly what I want to get out of life, and what I want to do and how I can actually make a living from whatever that is. I'm introverted but when I feel comfortable around you I can talk your ear off. I care strongly about social justice and politics and want to help make the world a more compassionate, more conscious place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet other people in Philadelphia; to travel on a budget; to meet like-minded individuals in general and befriend people in other cities; to network

Interests

I like seeing theater and movies, as well as biking, reading, and of course binge watching TV.

When wasting time on the Internet I try to at least learn a few new things and keep up with current events.

In the summer I love going to the beach.
