I'm a student from Dayville, CT. I'll be headed back to school in the fall to pursue a career in medicine.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to learn about people, and I love a good conversation -- I'd much rather experience a new place by meeting someone with a connection to said place.

Music, Movies, and Books

I recently enjoyed reading Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr. I'm also a poetry fan and would happily read anything by Mary Oliver, Adrienne Rich, or Ada Limón.

I'm always looking for new music -- at the moment, I'm listening to a lot of Joni Mitchell, The Chicks, and The Weepies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked on a saw crew in Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah for a summer -- it was some of the hardest work I've ever done, but it was incredibly beautiful.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like learning folk songs/tunes, and I would be happy to teach the few I know! I also know a fair amount about garden plants and insects, and I love to geek out about psychology.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A home cooked meal, a musical interlude, a poem or two.
