ABOUT ME
***07-02-2017: Just signed back on after a couple years. I will update my profile when I get some more time. Address is updated.
I am a fun, outgoing, energetic person once you get to know me. I'm easy going and down to earth. I graduated with a bachelor's in science at Northern Illinois University in December 2011 and I currently provide allergy testing and immunotherapy at a local hospital full time. For part-time work, I practice natural hoof care in the DFW area. I will be establishing my trimming business by 2014 and this may end up being a full-time job with enough clients. I love hearing stories and meeting new people. I am always up for a good time or a relaxing night around a bonfire.
PHILOSOPHY
Love and let love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've only hosted one person so far, but it was the greatest experience ever! Hope to get more people surfing in the future.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Love meeting new people through surfing/hosting!
Interests
I have been riding and working with horses since I was 9. I currently have a 21-year-old blue roan mare and a 2.5-year-old BLM bay mustang. I am interested in an equine-related career, most likely natural hoof care! Being fresh out of college. I've been know to show up at a party or 2, but now that I'm done with the college experience, I need to be more adult-like. (Not a chance).

Music, Movies, and Books
I like comedies, romances, dramas, and any thing with horses in it. I enjoy any genre of music besides country and heavy metal. I read occasionally, but nothing too exciting. I'm more likely to be doing word puzzles.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I went skydiving a week before my 21st birthday. I jumped out of a plane at 14,000ft. I know, that's high, huh? It was the craziest thing I've ever done, but I did it and have a video to prove it :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I LOVE horse people. Us horse people are a different breed. I also like meeting people who have experienced exotic places and have done crazy things. I love hearing stories from new people.
