Overview
About Me
Born and raised in Hawaii for over two decades. Attended University in Hawaii, Colorado State, Michigan State and a semester abroad in Australia.
I am currently in a dual degree program - Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and Masters in Public Health at Michigan State University. Not too sure what I want to do yet, but animals are a pretty awesome start.
I love trying new foods, participating in new activities/sports/games (no drugs, though), going to new places. New things are interesting. Knowledge and experience are amazing.
I believe in equality for all no matter skin color, faith, sexual orientation, or gender. I don't care if you are republican or democrat. Just treat others, all others, with respect.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet cool people. To find host and to host. To try something I haven't done before. To help alleviate travel costs. To experience an area from a locals perspective.
I haven't had much of an opportunity to host due to schools and travels back home with parents. Once I settle, I hope to meet even more people through travels and hosting.

Music, Movies, and Books
I'm boring...can't think of anything.
I like most music minus metal - just no screaming. I'm no hardcore fan of any specific artist. If I like the music I'll listen to it. =)
Action and Adventure movies with a splash of magic is cool...Harry Potter.
Spartacus, Game of Thrones, Flash, Scorpion, Arrow, Revenge, Anime, I like watching TV shows in general, but haven't much recently.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydive in Hawaii!!!!
Or SCUBA diving in the waters of the Great Barrier Reef!
