Traded my loafers for boots and my briefcase for a backpack with my only motivation to witness the pure kindness, genuinity, and serenity our planet wields.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just a student trying to see a bit more of the world than my small Midwest American hometown and campus. Unfortunately, due to the iron clasp education has on student finances, there's not a lot of option for a young globetrotter.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge EDM, Folk-Americana, and 90's Alternative fan. My favorite book is probably Perks of Being a Wallflower or Tale of Two Cities, but I love to read. I love the movie "Into the Wild" and "The Way."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I find myself answering this question frequently, and my answer remains constant. Philanthropy - fundraising and service. In the last three years I've had the opportunity to fundraise and donate over $150,000 to the Muscular Dystrophy Asociation, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, and a few others. I've done a lot in my life, but allowing those children a chance at something normal, even for a moment, is the most amazing thing I've experience. I'd be happy to explain more over some coffee.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't have a lot, but I have some great stories of my experiences from just about every setting you can imagine and that's valueless.
