I am a rising senior at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, NC. I'm working on a BA in English with minors in Linguistics and Political Science. I love the outdoors, reading and writing, and traveling. I have a three year old cattle dog mix rescue named Stella, who is my best friend! I'm an extrovert and love meeting new people. I also play guitar and piano and like to sing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling across the US this summer to scatter my dad's ashes in different national parks, and would love to meet new people along the way.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite musicians are Lorde, The Mountain Goats, Kendrick Lamar, and most 80s music. I don't watch a lot of movies, but I like horror a lot. I read voraciously and love nonfiction and science fiction. My favorite authors right now are Margaret Atwood, Khaled Hosseini, and Neil Gaiman, although that changes a lot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hosted a radio show at Sirius XM in New York when I was thirteen. It was called Jukebox Graduates and was on E Street Radio, a Bruce Springsteen station. I also talked to Bruce Springsteen on the phone once.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you basic guitar or piano, English and Spanish. I want to learn all kinds of things -- how to drive a car with manual transmission, how to ride a bike, how to sail, any language I can learn about, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share some good conversation, cook fabulous vegan meals, and play music with you if you'd like. I also have a ridiculously sweet and friendly dog who loves meeting new people!
