About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience as much as humanly (or inhumanly) possible

ABOUT ME

I'm an American who moved to London for Grad school and stayed. I really love London and hope to stay here forever.
Up until recently I worked in comedy and theatre PR but I have decided to change careers and am learning to code.
All my free time is spent running and volunteering with Goodgym. I've done over 200 good deeds in 2 years:) I run to visit an isolated older person once a week through GoodGym as well.

Because of Goodgym I'm DBS checked which means I'm certified to work with vulnerable people and officially have a clean record.

I'm shy but I love meeting new people (if that makes any sense) so I'm happy to help out fellow travelers.

I can't host now since I'm in shared accommodation and don't own my place but I'd be happy to meet up or show people around.

For everything else.... just ask!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived on a 30 ft sailboat with outward bound and slept on oars.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach/share music stuff- I sing, write songs and play guitar and bass.

I'm always up for a run and I'd also love to trade running/fitness tips. I'm getting my run leader certification in Sept so can 'officially' lead a running group after that.
