CURRENT MISSION

I currently work as a Diversity Recruiter out of the Chicago Peace Corps Office. With my role I have had the opportunity to see much of the Central United States, have incredible conversation, and learn from some amazing people!

PHILOSOPHY

I believe things happen for a reason. Each person is faced with different obstacles in which they have to overcome and the way you react to those obstacles can either build you up or break you down...but regardless the outcome, they are all learning experiences that can make you a better person.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I kicked off my couchsurfing experience in 2009 throughout Europe, with my first ever couch being in Amsterdam. Since then I have had the opportunity to see many more countries and plenty of couches along the way!
