I teach 6th and 7th graders how to wield the English language superlatively.

I love small-town life, and I'd like the chance to show you the charms of Crawfordsville.

I enjoy working, cooking, hiking, playing tennis, reading, playing the piano, meeting new people, and having a good movie or board game night with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to experience new places with a person who loves the place you happen to be, and the finest thing in life is to form new friendships.
