About Me

So far, I've learned that writing "About Me" sections are more anxiety-inducing than a dissertation defense.

Seeking what is there when love, patience, openness, fearlessness, silliness , lack of ego wins... always working toward not being dominated by fear, by selfishness, by jealousy, by insecurity.

Also... pretty into comic books, skiing, running, hiking, Magic: The gathering, dancing hard but not particularly well, frequently losing in Settlers of Catan despite my new sure-to-win strategy, and delicious craft beer.

One time I dressed up as a sloth with a fanny pack and lectured in my classes the entire day.

Super not into red baseball caps with trite sayings written in white Times New Roman.

Intensely in love with my amazing partner and our pooch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would like to expand the circle of exploration, opportunities, and new perspectives to more wonderful people.

The Dark Tower

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Barcelona, I single-handedly stopped (secret Hulk strength!) an unattended car that was just about to steamroll down a major street!

Teach, Learn, Share

Juggling, statistics, branding strategy, amazing beer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

An enthusiasm for deep engagement in anyone's passions; the neatest thing about having my job is I get to be a student for the entirety of my life. If you happen to have an enthusiasm for nerd culture, I'm most definitely your huckleberry. I have a deep passion for craft beer as well, and putting my feet to the dirt and exploring the outdoors .
