CURRENT MISSION

To explore California, and to go to every National Park in the USA!

ABOUT ME

I recently moved from my native Chicago to Los Angeles! I love the sunshine and the road tripping possibilities. I'm excited to re-connect with the Couchsurfing community after taking a hiatus during the pandemic.
I teach dance to K-12 students, and love learning dance of all kinds.
I studied anthropology, religious studies, and dance in college in St. Paul, Minnesota. I've been to 30+ countries, and love making connections and learning from people everywhere. I've got insatiable wanderlust and thrive on exploration!

PHILOSOPHY

Experience as much as possible; give back more than you've been given.
