I'm an aspiring world traveler, avid reader, passive health enthusiast, and politics junkie. I have spent the majority of my life in the wonderful - but small - town of Fargo, North Dakota where I've recently graduated from our local university, North Dakota State.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm Couchsurfing because I want to experience the world in an authentic way. I love meeting and learning about new people and places. This seems like a great way to see the world, meet new people and make great connections.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a huge alternative music person. I love Dave Matthews, Carbon Leaf, Hall & Oats, Ed Sheeran, etc. I've also been known to jam to hip-hop, pop, and the classics like Michael Jackson, Sinatra, or James Taylor.

Favorite movies would have to be Braveheart (or any other Mel Gibson film), Gladiator, and the Lord of the Rings triligy.

You are almost certain to find me reading something related to politics or presidential/American history. So, basically any book by David McCullough. I also like to dive into the classics from time to time - A tale of two cities, Count of Monte Cristo, Pride and Predudice or a few of my favorites.
