I am a visual artist and art teacher at two Boston Public High Schools in Boston. I've been living in Boston for 8 years (apart from 1 year working/living abroad in Peru and China). I moved to Boston when I started college at Northeastern University where I studied International Affairs. I like to draw, paint, look at art, be outdoors in pretty places, take field recordings of interesting sounds and then make them into sound collages, talk about love, play the harmonica, make Vietnamese spring rolls & soup, and mess around on Ableton to make sound collages/beats :)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I live in a house with 7 lovely humans (all artists and musicians) and we often host couch surfers throughout the year. The surfers are usually connected to our Boston home through my amazing roomie Dave T. We've only had positive experiences using this website to host surfers. I've met such amazing people through hosting, learned so much from chatting with our guests, and kept in touch with a number of them! I've only couch surfed myself once, but am now interested in using the site to surf as well as host!
