An informal educator at heart, currently taking a break to work in the public sector to learn some new skills to bring back with me!

Have not traveled enough since COVID, but some highlights include: teaching, volunteering, and learning in India, Ethiopia, Italy, Spain, Israel, Turkey, Myanmar, Japan (twice in high school as a teen actor), Puerto Rico, and Mexico.

And recently started spending more time outdoors - in Shenandoah, West Virginia, beautiful Southern California, Death Valley, Banff, Colorado Rockies, and more!

Yet, there's a lot of the world I still want to see and people I want to connect with - stateside and internationally. Hopefully this is a place to help facilitate that!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
