I'm a native Texan, happily transplanted to the Pacific Northwest. I'm exploring my vision for my life and seeing how I influence and fit into the world around me. I love hearing and telling stories, and I am an avid student of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm brand new to Couchsurfing! I love travel and shared experiences, and I've always heard great things about couch surfing. Creatively contributing to people I encounter sounds way more fun than staying in hotels, AirBs, or my truck. I look forward to the time when I, too, can offer a couch or a room up for travelers.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have very eclectic musical tastes, but some that really get me going include musical theater soundtracks and 80's pop.
I like just about any movie, given the right circumstances, but I don't watch many lately.
Audio books have prevailed in my life the last few years. Genres include personal development, history, educational, and YA fiction (think Lemony Snicket and Orson Scott Card).
