About Me

Hi! My name is Kevin and I am a Finance, Accounting major at the University of Kentucky. I enjoy reading, hiking, and American history. Some of my favorite books include the Bible, Love Does, and Atlas Shrugged. I'm an ESTJ on 16personalities.com, I love spending time with my family, which includes 6 younger siblings, and I've spent time traveling in India, Spain.

Also, I grew up Amish (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amish) and I'm happy to tell you about it if you're interested :)

A few more things I enjoy:
- bourbon & wine
- coffee
- basketball
- meeting new faces
- local food (more for atmospheres than food)
- investing
- discussing ideas
- all kinds of music from Kendrick Lamar to Gregorian chants
- work (really, I love my job!)
- dancing (currently taking lessons because my dancing skills are subpar)
- running/quick workouts
- lots of podcasts!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because my job allows me to work remotely. I'm planning to work in investment banking starting in June 2018, so I need to make the most of the time I have before then. Look for me in your US city soon!
