I am a scientist by trade and I live in North Carolina. I enjoy rock climbing, reading, and general nerdiness. I am a little quiet when first meeting people, but I tend to look for the best in others. I thoroughly enjoy good puns and corny humor.
I really enjoy being around positive and happy people. Curiosity is always a huge plus as well. My job involves a lot of trial and error, technical minutia, and long hours. Talking with really curious and interested people revitalizes my passion for my work.
I live with three roommates so I will have to get their approval before hosting anyone. They are fairly relaxed people though so it should not be an issue.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
