I'm a communications manager at a creative agency in NYC. I absolutely love storytelling in all its forms, but currently help brands figure out how to tell their stories.

Super passionate about social justice, telling stories from people that might not normally have a voice, and volunteering.

Love curling up with a good book, but also always down for a good dance party or dinner out on the town. Love big cities and beautiful beaches.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my favorite parts about traveling is meeting different types of people. I love seeing how other people live, getting to know the unwritten about parts of a country, and making new friends.

Music, Movies, and Books

Very open-minded when it comes to music, but my favorites are Motown, soul ala Otis Redding, 90's grunge, and indie hip hop.

Really love dark comedies like Harold & Maude and Heathers.

Books-- anything non-fiction! Plus sci-fi/dystopian novels and YA.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Studied women's issues in India and did social work with women's self-help groups in rural villages outside Bangalore.

Moved to Costa Rica for a few months to write and surf. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach creative writing and some basic coding/how to set up a website or start a blog, I'd love to improve my French or Spanish, and I can share stories and food!

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Costa Rica, England, India, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Sri Lanka
