ABOUT ME

Born and raised in a suburb outside of Chicago that's home to Northwestern University. By day, I work at an ad/media agency and by night I work at a microbrewery. (I've never actually brewed a beer, so if you happen to home brew and are looking for a bar wench--I'm your girl).

PHILOSOPHY

'Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.'
-Max Ehrmann, "Desiderata"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Sort of just going through the 9-5 cubicle lifestyle motions, and am looking for some inspiration.

Interests

I come from a family of professional artists: my parents are musicians and my sister is a dancer. Hoping one day I'll discover some hidden artistic talent (my mom thinks I'm funny--does that count?)

CURRENT DABBLINGS

Music, Movies, and Books

MUSIC

Because it's impossible to categorize my music taste, here are the most recent listened-to songs on my Spotify:

1.) Happy Idiot - TV on The Radio
2.) Drops - Jungle
3.) DARE - Gorillaz
4.) Made to Stray - Mount Kimbie
5.) Sugah Daddy - D'Angelo

MOVIES

Anything that makes you think. Quasi-romcoms...not so much, unless it stars Kristen Wig.

BOOKS

On a mission to read more, so suggestions are welcome. I prefer non-fiction books/short stories, but can always get down with a good thriller.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you some songs on Guitar (Winter Wonderland, Happy Birthday, and maybe Hey Jude if you're cool).

Jokes aside, I am an extremely curious person and love taking in new cultures, ideas, and adventure.
