I'm 23 years old. I originally grew up about halfway between Baltimore and Annapolis, but also spent a few months living in New York City and am now moving down to Nashville TN to pursue music. I recently got engaged!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learned to fly an airplane!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a singer/songwriter and enjoy helping others with those things. I can help with English. I'd love to learn French. I learned a few basics before vacationing there, but it was awhile ago and would be cool to learn now.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm friendly and enjoy making people's days. I like networking and encouraging others out of their shells when it comes to performing and expressing themselves. I am always an open ear when someone needs it. I have been depressed and suicidal and have experienced a lot of loss and trauma and have been on a great path to recovery and thoroughly enjoy helping others when they need it.

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, England, France, Germany, Netherlands, Slovakia
