I’m currently working as a Sr. Quality Engineer in the medical device field. I am starting a Master’s in Computer Science. I was born in the United States, in the New York City metropolitan region. I lived my teenage years in South America (Colombia) where I acquired a passion for traveling and languages. I taught myself Portuguese and while attending college in Colombia I won a scholarship to study French at l'Alliance Française.

If you're in the area I'd love to meet up and give you a tour of the city, hangout and exchange ideas!

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

I am on Couchsurfing for a number of reasons:
* I love to travel and discover new cultures.
* I'd love to practice the languages I have learned and learn new ones. I am currently learning Russian.
* I am introverted so this is an opportunity for me to meet new people, make new friends, and step out of my bubble.
