I currently live in Somerville, Massachusetts with my kitten Clement and my beloved plants that Clement has decided are his edible friends.
I work as a City Planner in Chelsea, Massachusetts and enjoy applying my knowledge and expertise to planning and construction of streets, sidewalks, parks, playgrounds, and climate resiliency solutions. I also attend Boston University where I am pursuing a Masters in Urban Affairs and also fulfill my responsibilities as President of the BU Urban Planning Association.
I have grown up in New England; New Hampshire is home where my parents raised myself and my triplet brothers, Burlington, Vermont is where I attended school and flourished into my young adulthood, and I now reside in Massachusetts where I continue to live, love, and work.
I enjoy playing guitar, exploring the world through food, nature, and culture, reading, beer, and certain smoke-able flora on occasion ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking for places to rest my head while I travel the country.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I backpacked Thailand for a month with my brother.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a wealth of knowledge on climate change solutions, city planning, engineering, and literature.

I would like to learn how I can communicate better with others...oh I would also like to learn any new dishes I can master and wow my friends and family with.

I can share my brain and heart and the experiences that have cultivated both.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to do chores, yardwork, cooking, and whatever else for you in exchange for staying with you.
