Born and raised in Kansas and then began attending school at Oklahoma City University as a BFA Acting major. As of Spring of 2016 I am studying Drama for a term at Uni in England and loving it! The school is wonderful and it is so great to be close to so many different countries and cultures. Just celebrated my 1st year as a vegetarian! ✨🎉🎈

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
It may be redundant to say, but truthfully I chose CS as a way of forming connections. My energy just grows when I meet new people and I think it is one of the best feelings in the world. There is so much to be learned just by interacting with someone new. It is one of the best forms of education that we have on this earth.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music= Anything but House and Metal. With a preference for folk and other chilled out genres. Gregory Alan Isakov The Head and The Heart Vampire Weekend Laura Mvula Lianne Lahavas Esperanza Spalding Ingrid Michaelson Sara Bareilles II've recently been on a Wes Anderson kick. Into the Wild Wild Mona Lisa Smile The Descendants The Color of Friendship Selma I have a guilty pleasure for cheesy and predictable romantic comedies. In terms of books, I have to admit that most of my reading comes from plays rather than books. Some favorites: The Yellowman The Whipping Boy Most of Bill's works The Seagull The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime (Also a book. Go read/see this the SECOND you get the opportunity!)
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Once, my friends and I saved this little girl and a grandma from drowning in a river. (At least we think we saved them. TBH they may have been fine without us...but that story is not as cool)
What I Can Share With Hosts
I just bought an Irish Penny Whistle, so that could be fun???? I love music and the arts so we can sing and jam or paint or anything creative and I would fully engage! An open mind. My mom's motto is "loosey goosey" and I think it rubbed off on my because I am very flexible when it comes to most things. I am open to any kind of adventure, lifestyle, etc. An ear. I enjoy listening to people and hearing about themselves and their stories.
