Hi, I just graduated from the State University of New York at Geneseo! I studied Sociology, Political Science and Urban Studies. I am moving to Bulgaria in September to teach through the Fulbright program! I enjoy the energy of new people and experiences!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing seems like an amazing community of down to earth travelers and creative minds. I am interested to connect with people from all over the world and gain insight into what life is like as a local.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very open to all types of music, but I am especially keen on folk and lyrical significance. I am a big Mac Demarco fan and created a photo series in response to the song "Cooking up Something Good." I have been in a Homeshake phase for a couple of months and I am always down for a little Jim Croce jam session!! In terms of a time period that I gravitate towards for music, I would say the 1970s. Breton is my favorite film director and I appreciate his mastery of visual storytelling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked as an archival specialist for a documentary production company in New York City! I hope to make an artfully crafted documentary one day!

Teach, Learn, Share

I studied and lived in Thailand for five months and discovered that Asian Elephants have blue eyelashes! I am always interested in finding creative people who want to collaborate and exchange experiences!

I love watching people surf and recently did some surfer photography in Baja.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My love of photography, some great conversations and of course some laughter!
