Hello!

I am a recent graduate of the University of Redlands in southern California. I studied neuroscience and entrepreneurship with the intention of becoming a western doctor. After discovering that western medicine is mostly business, I decided to study Ayurvedic medicine. This type of medicine focuses on prevention and promotion of health by choice in lifestyle rather than supplementation of drugs in order to treat symptoms and disease.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am attending the AD/PD (Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease) conference in Lisbon Portugal and I want to visit a friend of mine who is staying in Madrid. I cannot afford a hotel in Madrid because they are all at least $1500...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Started a chapter of a non-profit at my university in undergrad. The non-profit is called The Youth Movement Against Alzheimer's. They seek to create a respite care model for Alzheimer's patients to work with volunteer college students.
