About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making the most of my time, bringing the best out of others, and learning as much as I can from others' stories, cooking new food and new music!

ABOUT ME

I love trying new things, places, and most of all people. I'm a scientist so I love to cook with new recipes and ask a lot of questions. I love listening to stories. I also like my alone time- where I like biking, running, backpacking, and enjoy being outside. I have a super passion for music, singing, playing piano, and I just picked up guitar. I've studied biology, environmental science, and strategic leadership toward sustainability. I consider myself a part-time vegetarian, which means I prefer eating vegan, but I also won't say no to meat if that's what we're eating. I'm super easy going, and bad at telling jokes and portraying myself in a funny-but-not-too-funny way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I thought I'd try it out to save some money on my travels and simultaneously meet people!

I joined because I had an awesome time couch surfing and road tripping with couch surfers- so I thought it was time I got my own account!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made a cappuccino for Bob Dylan. Well, actually two, but I don't think he drank both of them.

Besides my winning personality, I could probably share some cookies or chocolate.
