CURRENT MISSION

Broaden my perspectives

ABOUT ME

Currently an economics student in college, I hope to finish my undergraduate education while seeing the world and meeting new people. I'm an avid concertgoer and a fan of books, movies and art.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's no better way to learn an area than with someone who lives there.

Interests

I like trying new things and learning about the world. I enjoy writing and taking photographs, and I can't get enough of the outdoors.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was a student in a hospital "exploration" program, I observed a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) in the operating room. After the surgeon removed the organ, the anesthesiologist had me put gloves on and, without warning, dropped the gallbladder into my hands. It was a singular experience holding a piece of a human being that had been within them just minutes before.
