About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a student getting my degrees in Outdoor Leadership and Education in Ashland, OR. I have been lucky enough to travel all over the world and spend countless nights in the backcountry. I love backpacking and skiing, being goofy, cooking dinner, watching movies (I love Pixar), dancing around to '80s rock or banjo. In past lives I have been a line cook, a baker, and preschool teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Part of what I love most about traveling is getting immersed in the local happenings, meeting new people and swapping great stories.

Interests

I love backpacking, riding my bike, skiing, playing board games, rock climbing, sitting in the sun and cooking/eating delicious food.
