I am 27. I am from Indiana and have decided Indianapolis is a pretty sweet and affordable city to live in for now, despite my constant wanderlust. Professionally I am interested in public policy and research and using data to make better decisions. After work I love to ride my bike around our great trails, go to live shows, attend lectures or speaking events about interesting topics, go to the symphony, drink a beer out somewhere with friends, stretch and yoga, go latin dancing on certain nights, paint or draw weird things alone or with friends, make hand-made gifts for people, spend time with my grandma in the countryside, etc. I like to meet people and am curious about everything you are willing to tell me interesting stories about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
