I'm a graduate student at the University of Maryland, College Park. I have a dog named Sundance. Love to travel, explore, and find hidden gems. Most of my adventuring has been state side, and usually involves finding BLM land or hiking into a forest, although I also enjoy exploring cities, finding great art, and good eats.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm in the process of trying to move back to the West Coast, and am looking to have some awesome adventures along the way! Couch surfing really appeals to me since I dig meeting new people and making new friends. Also, I'm a starving grad student, so it fits my budget.

教，学，和分享

My research focuses on prevention education regarding issues of violence. I'm always more than happy to teach, share, and learn others experiences with this topic, but I also understand that it can be a difficult topic to discuss with someone you have just met. Other topics I'm always happy to discuss include social justice movements, outdoorsy life, and amazing travel adventures/favorite trips.
