CURRENT MISSION

I want to see as much of Europe as humanly possible while completing my MA in creative writing at Oxford Brookes, England!

ABOUT ME

I’m a recent West Virginia University alumni with a BA in English concentrating in Creative Writing and am currently attending Oxford Brookes University in Oxford, England, pursuing my MA in Creative Writing. I did Color Guard for eight years through both my schools and independent groups, was president of the English Honor Society at WVU and was a member of concert bands and chorales. I love to read, write, take pictures, play dress up, travel and go to the movies. I’m a well rounded nerd who enjoys movie soundtracks, graveyards and the smell of old books.

PHILOSOPHY

Good question. I'll get back to you on that one.

I am new to CS and have never actually done it before, but I am interested in beginning to couch surf and meeting new people. I do not currently have a couch open myself, my flat is super small and I live with 4 other people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None! No experience, but I can't wait to get out there and give it a try.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I took a puppetry class my senior year of college. That's not really amazing, but it's sort of funny, so it's going to have to do until I think of something better.
