ABOUT ME

I am a costume designer and lindy hopper (swing dance) currently living in los angeles. I have been dancing for 9 years, I travel to lindy dance events, and produce burlesque shows.
Born and raised in Tennessee on a farm but love to travel and want to see the world.

I have recently worked on Extra Tv and Masters of Sex as a costumer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am apart of a (google: lindy hop!) dance community where housing other dancers is the norm. I have hosted many folks from around the world and have used the network myself to attend dance events in different places.
I love inviting welcoming people in my house when I can, and share cooking dinners, stories, and good company.

The most recent news is that my boyfriend and I are moving to NYC where his new job is.
