Hey friend. I'm a student at the College of William and Mary, and a government major. I spend most of my free time practicing for my debate team, studying for the LSATs, running the best I can, and writing rap verses better than anyone can. I am obsessed with poetry, music, and BBQ potato chips. Originally from NY, I live in Williamsburg/Richmond Virginia now depending on if I'm at school or not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm poor and love humans. I spend the vast majority of my free time talking to debaters around the country about their lives, their particular intellectual/social interests, and it has enriched my understanding of the diversity of humans more than I can express in this quickly enlarging text box. Thus, I really want to interact with people when I travel, to share my story with them and perhaps be lucky enough to hear a bit of theirs as well. Same goes for hosting fellow humans! I also love couches.

Interests

The beautiful thing about debating is that it's opened my life up to every field of study and culture. I want to learn everything. I am particularly interested in feminism, queer theory, poetry, puppies, and hip-hop.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coached a debate team full of people and minds that I love.

Teach, Learn, Share

Dope at English, I write well and practice public speaking every day.

I spend my life teaching people things I know and learning from them through debate practice, I don't claim to be an expert in many things but I know a little about quite a lot. I'd LOVE to teach anyone about feminism/queer theory in particular, working on trans* rights is where I may begin my life after law school, and if this is something you haven't thought a lot about previously, I'd love to discuss with you!

I would really love advice from fellow poets on writing/publishing.

I also love free-styling/rap-battling with people. Bring it.

What I Can Share with Hosts
