CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of this beautiful world as I can.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Boston, and I just graduated from the University of Michigan with degrees in English and psychology. At the end of this month, I will be moving to New York City to be a reporter at Forbes magazine.

I have been raised with an artistic background, so I love drawing and painting. I have been training in dance since I was very young, and I have always loved singing. I only recently started learning the ukulele--and I began doing improv and stand-up comedy a few years ago.
I hope I can bring humour and good spirits to any adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, just a couch-surfer. When I finally have my own apartment in the near future though, I hope to return the favor by hosting!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started traveling alone two years ago, and I have had the most positive couchsurfing experiences!
I went solo down the west coast for 3 weeks last year, where I had hosts in Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and LA. Earlier this summer, I traveled the American Southwest for 2 weeks, camping in Death Valley, Great Basin, Bryce, Zion, and Grand Canyon.

After I graduated high school, I took a solo New England road trip, which was the most terrifying yet rewarding experience ever.
That was what initially sparked my love for traveling and spontaneous exploring.
