I am a recent graduate from the University of North Carolina Wilmington. I studied English Literature and also received my certificate in Professional Writing. My minor was Women's Gender Studies and I am passionate about women's rights, mental health advocacy, social justice, and equal opportunity. I like to go to the beach in my spare time as well as reading and going for bike rides. I'm a vegan and enjoy creating new healthy recipes to share with friends. I also am a huge cat and dog lover!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling and have couch-surfed in the past when I took a gap year with my best friend traveling across the country in our minivan! I'm always looking for new experiences and people to meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
