CURRENT MISSION

Living life to the fullest.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Boston and moved to Miami when I was around 2 years old. After Hurricane Andrew demolished my home, we moved to Fort Lauderdale. I grew up riding horses, playing baseball, and watching Star Wars. I moved to Orlando after high school to pursue a degree at UCF. I realize the places I live don't make up who I am. But neither do my actions, or my colleagues, or any other single aspect of my lifestyle.

PHILOSOPHY

Love and happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

On my drive from Fort Lauderdale to Scottsdale, I stopped in New Orleans, El Paso, Houston, and then surfed in Scottsdale.

One of the worst drives ever made bearable (and extremely fun) by CouchSurfing.

Interests

• horses
• make up
• baseball
