I grew up in Colorado Springs, Colorado. I moved away and went to college at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon. Go Boxers! While I was in school, I studied abroad in Guayaquil, Ecuador where I caught the travel bug.

Since graduating I began working in the Emergency Room as a Medical Scribe in order to gain clinical experience prior to starting medical school. I have applied to 26 schools in the United States and am anxiously waiting to hear. Right now, I am interested in specializing in Emergency Medicine!

I am fluent in Spanish, and I absolutely love Hispanic culture. I am very eager to involve myself in foreign cultures in order to learn as much as I can.

Currently looking for hosts in Lima, Cusco, Arequipa and Paracas, Peru for a trip in June 2018! Traveling with my friends, Meaghan Conway and Aqieda Bayat, neither of whom have CS profiles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think travel is an amazing opportunity to meet new people and learn a lot about different countries and their cultures.
