I am a field researcher and educator with an M.S. in Biology and love for all things bird related. Currently I work on San Clemente Island, CA monitoring the Loggerhead Shrike population. I've traveled across the states studying birds, backpack, hiking, and enjoying the wonders of nature. Flagstaff, AZ is my home base where I've work for the city government, taught at the local community college, and performed with Flagstaff Shakespeare Festival. My partner is in the middle of his master's at NAU (Northern Arizona University), and when he finishes up--who knows where the wind will blow us!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I had an amazing number of couchsurfing experiences during my move-every-3-months-for-2-years stage of life. I love meeting new people and sharing stories of adventures across the world.
