CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people and explore the world.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the horridly humid, yet semi glamorous, southern city of Houston, and studied Theater and Literature in South Carolina. For a while I acted on the side while doing other things like marketing for an engineering company and working in the grant department of a charitable foundation. Then I quit everything and moved to Chicago, where I became a full-time actress and a part-time snowman. I've also studied with The Second City, played in clowning and shadow puppets and jumped fences into music festivals.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in treating people with the respect and dignity with which I would like to be treated.

I think as Hamlet says that there are "more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I'm just surfing as I don't have permanent housing at the moment, but I can make some kick ass coffee and cocktails.
