I was born and raised in Seattle, specifically on Vashon Island, for the greater part of my life. Since then I have moved around a bit following the divorce of my parents. For my first year of high school, I lived in Southampton in the UK with my father and attended The Gregg School. Returning to Seattle I finished high school, graduating in June 2014. After graduation I took a gap year to find what I wanted to do with my life going forward, which I have decided will be a career in sustainable architecture. This September I will be a freshman student at The Evergreen State College.

I have a relaxed and easy going nature. I make friends easily and find making conversation a natural talent. I live for adventure and experience, and try to do as much as I can to learn and observe in any situation.

MY PHILOSOPHY:

I live to constantly learn and grow. As a part of this, my self worth is in part determined by my ability to help others.

I am confident, both in myself and anyone who I call a friend.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To have a greater chance of meeting new and interesting people as I travel.

I hope to one day be able to host!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always a student. Wherever I go and whatever I do, i'm learning.

When circumstance provides me the opportunity to tech what I know, I do so.
