About Me

Hey fellow Couchsurfers! Let me tell you a bit about myself - I was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada and am now a Canadian living in Colorado. I graduated from CSU in Fort Collins, class of 2013 with a degree in Economics and a degree in Corporate Finance. I worked in local bicycle shops throughout my undergraduate degree as a mechanic and am now working as an Economist for a global manufacturing firm based out of Boulder, Colorado.
I am a hobbyist musician, focusing on "things with strings" - specifically, 6 string acoustic guitar, 12 string acoustic guitar, mandolin, and 5 string banjo. I get together with friends often and jam folk/ bluegrass music.
I love to spend my time experiencing life - the type of experiences I prefer to pursue are: live music, camping, backpacking, hiking, biking, disc golf, traveling, cooking and beer!
I am looking forward to meeting new friends via couchsurfing! Fort Collins is an amazing community and great way to experience the Colorado Front Range!

Favorite movies - cult classics (pulp fiction, big lebowski, etc.); fantasy (lord of the rings, GoT, etc.); some drama, some comedy...
Favorite books - Ayn Rand is one of my favorite authors - I also enjoy fantasy (see above) and have been catching up on the classics (Arthur Conan Doyle, James Joyce, Herman Melville, etc.)
