About Me

ABOUT ME

I am a cognitive scientist/cognitive anthropologist, finishing up my PhD on the reasons why people believe in witches. I was born in the US but lived in Northern Ireland for 5 years, studying religious conflict, hiking in the rain, and drinking beer. I love Lyon but my French is awful. I'm currently also teaching psychology in Boston and am a visiting scholar in New Haven, CT. I'm all over the place, but insist on making time for fun and exploration, by myself or with the couch surfing community.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met some of the best people here! When the world looks like a dark place, it is nice to know that there are strangers connecting and caring for each other. Let's grab a drink, a wander, or an exhibition?
