Professional actor/model/singer, as well as a corporate freelancer on the side! I definitely consider myself a bit of a hippie or free spirit but also have a love of leisure—you won’t often find me partying all night, I’d much rather share an interesting conversation over a bottle of wine. I love gardening, bicycling, dancing, yoga, animals, and singalongs!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling is something I’ve wanted to do forever, especially places I’ve read about in my history studies. Meeting locals is half the reason to go honestly; it’s the best way to really experience the culture of different places!

Music, Movies, and Books

Before I lived in New York, I lived in New Orleans for 4 years and have a great love of live music, especially jazz and funk! I’m not a very picky person honestly and enjoy pretty much any art! 🙈 I love reading history books, and that definitely ties into my travels. It’s so cool to see buildings you’ve read about for years in real life!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve made myself somewhat “internet famous” (haha) as a model/costume designer. I’ve made over 40 costumes in 4 years and I model them all at comic book conventions and on Instagram (@msraecosplay)! It’s kind of goofy, but I’m very proud of my self taught sewing skills. 🤓

Teach, Learn, Share

I was originally raised in the Southern US which is known for its distinct culture and food, and I’d be happy to share recipes or make dinner together!

I studied music in college and love discussing music or even jamming if you have any instruments!

I’m also a bit of a plant whisperer (it runs in my family), and I’m happy to bond over gardening!
