I'm a Ph.D. student at Wake Forest University studying. I have 5 reptiles (I'll show you tons of pictures if you ever meet me, they're very adorable). My goal is to travel as much as possible while I'm young and able and to meet as many people as possible along the way. I'm studying neuroscience, so my party trick is getting drunk and blowing your mind with biological facts.

I collect wooden tobacco pipes, love beverages of all sorts, and will have deep conversations with you on a rooftop at 3 AM. In another life, I would have gone to culinary school and opened an artisan tater tot food truck.

Music: Between the Buried and Me, Monsters and Men, Of Mice and Men, Arctic Monkeys, Animals as Leaders, The Chainsmokers, A Day to Remember, Ellie Goulding, Fall out Boy, and almost everything in between.

Hobbies: Checking out new bars, coffee, reptile keeping, Muay Thai and MMA, travel, and sleeping.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I absolutely love to travel and meet new people. For me, most of the fun in traveling is meeting new friends along the way. I'm a student, so traveling cheap and being able to meet people along the way is a huge bonus. Looking forward to meeting new people!
