ABOUT ME

I'm a first year master's student at the Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, specializing in Conservation Planning. I spend a lot of time in the lab but I try to get out when I can, and I'm always up for some good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

I am a part of all that I have met - Alfred Lord Tennyson

Think like a man of action, act like a man of thought - Henri Louis Bergson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am available to host and will be looking for couches in the future, definitely.

Interests

I am always up for new experiences, whether that is hiking, kayaking, traveling, canoeing, whatever! Some of my favorite past times tend to be having a few drinks with some good friends and conversation, and knitting, usually not at the same time.

One of my favorite experiences has been spending a week canoeing upstream along the Colorado River to the Hoover Dam, finding swimming holes, caves, hiking, bouldering, hot springs, and hot waterfalls along the way! Beautiful trip with some great people
