CURRENT MISSION

Moving to San Francisco in the fall to become a clown.

ABOUT ME

Two years ago, give or take, I accidentally became an actress. Soon after, I left the teaching profession to fulfill my lifelong dream of performing in the circus. Since then I have been traipsing along, ukulele in hand, to find where it is I belong. I'm a clown in my life, and someday soon I hope to be one in my job, too. I'm a funny dancer and a pretty good cook. I sing in the shower no matter who is listening and, if you stay in my house, I will expect you to do the same.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever you're doing, if you don't feel simultaneously delighted and slightly embarrassed, you should probably find something better to do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My salmon pink living room in Brattleboro was commonly home to many uncommon folk. Now it is my turn again to be the seed in the wind.

Interests

Making art, writing, singing, cycling, dancing, building things, sewing outrageous costumes, being upside-down, being high in the air, being upside-down high in the air, making kids laugh, making grownups laugh, making myself laugh (I'm really good at that).

Music, Movies, and Books

The epic and fantastic.

Banjos, accordions, calliopes, bagpipes--

These lists are impossible to make. I'll try again soon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Most days are like this. I will make a list sometime.

Teach, Learn, Share

I paid attention in kindergarten. I love to share art, meals, and stories. I love to sing and read out loud.
