About Me

Traveling the US this summer. Based in Miami where I have worked in community engagement for entrepreneurs and social change makers.

Previously lived in Ann Arbor, Michigan helping create Grass Lake Sanctuary - a retreat and nature sanctuary about helping people's lives come into balance through food for health, de-stressing, creativity, relationship. Particularly serving cancer survivors and other people with compromised health.

I'm drug and smoke free.

Looove animals, kids, travel, playing around.

I have some food and environmental sensitivities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I couch surfed (without the site) for a while after graduating college. Having that time to travel and explore was a huge gift and I am still thankful for those friends opening their homes to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived on a train in India for a month with a Colgate University study abroad program. We followed the story of the Ramayana through the the country. I love India.

There is a waterfall and pools in Costa Rica that I swam in every day for a few weeks. It is one of my favorite places.

Lived in the backcountry of Yosemite National Park for a trail season with the California conservation Corps/Americorps. Had our food and supplies packed in on mules twice a week. How beautiful this world is!
