Overview
About Me
I'm constantly looking for adventures through travel, rock climbing, and meeting new people.
I grew up in Texas and worked at a ranch camp teaching horseback riding and sharing my love of nature with kids.
I studied mechanical and aerospace engineering in New York, and then moved to Los Angeles to design and build spacecraft.
I'm taking a year off to travel the world with my husband!

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Temple Crag in the Sierras.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am working on learning Spanish, so I am excited to find patient friends to practice with. I'm happy to help others learn English, or introduce friends to rock climbing!
What I Can Share with Hosts
