I am a recent film school graduate of Chapman University outside of Los Angeles studying directing and philosophy, originally from Seattle. I will be spending the next year traveling around Europe and continuing my film studies in Germany. I love to throw myself into the unknown, making friends out of strangers, sharing stories, music, art, and adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am very easy going and am ever appreciative of the kindness of hosts, I hope to return the favor once I settle down. I have made lifelong friends over the years of couch surfing.
