Overview
About Me
I'm a recent college graduate who studied Computer Science and Psychology at Harvard in Massachusetts. I currently live and work in Seattle. I'm looking to travel around the world, meet some amazing people, and experience new sights!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I started couchsurfing junior year of college when I was studying abroad in London. I had the opportunity to couchsurf in Vienna and was amazed at the kindness of complete strangers. It was the highlight of my year.
Since then, I've couchsurfed a few more times and every single time it has been a transformative experience. I'm always excited to meet new and interesting people and have memorable discussions with people who I've never met before.
Interests
Cooking, boardgames, walking and biking around cities, travel (obviously!), photography, reading nonfiction, personal finance, computer science, technology, psychology, and discovering new music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went surfing for the first time on the coasts of Portugal with two people I met on a free walking tour the day before in Lisbon!
