CURRENT MISSION

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined." -Henry David Thoreau

ABOUT ME

I work at Texas A&M University and help students pursue international experiences every day. Originally from Columbia, MD, prior to coming to College Station, I lived in Ithaca, NY; Annecy, France; Almansa, Spain and Bloomington, IN.

I'd say that I'm a very open-minded person who gets along with similarly open-minded people. I love traveling, seeing new things, meeting new people.

I also have a soft spot for coffee and crêpes.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning is essential and never-ending.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been a member of Couchsurfing for over three years now and have had a few great surfing experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Two wonderful surfing experiences in Bern and Lausanne, Switzerland, with people who were incredibly friendly and welcoming. I also stayed with a couple in Spain when I first arrived to spend a year there and they became some of my closest friends.

Interests

In addition to languages and traveling, I'm a huge fan of theatre and music. I spent two years in college studying theatre before I eventually decided to switch to French.

Other interests include but are not limited to: discovering international cuisines, cooking, baking, laughing with friends, Disney World, sudoku puzzles, yogurt, going to the gym
