Just trying to figure things out. I've been married/divorced. I grew up in Oklahoma, but I've lived in Connecticut, Georgia/Florida, and now Colorado. I've been a 9-1-1 call-taker, a domestic violence shelter advocate, and a co-organizer for a grassroots movement against sexual violence.

I worked at a roadhouse in the mountains and now live in Loveland while I attend CSU to finish my degree in Communications. I work for the CSU Energy Institute and love to travel and meet new people :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love to travel and can't always afford a hotel. More importantly, I've learned the best of my experiences are the people I meet along the way. I want to hear your story and share mine! Maybe it will end up in the book one day.

兴趣

I like to hike, ride horses, camp, and try just about anything new.
I love music. I'm certainly not a pro, but sitting with friends around a fire playing guitar under the stars has never disappointed me. I sing, play guitar, and I'm learning mandolin.
I also love to paint, read, and write.

音乐、电影和书籍

It's hard to narrow things down. I'm always open to listening to new stuff.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I volunteer as an advocate and activist for an organization that has helped pass legislation in Oklahoma to educate school administrators on how to help victims of sexual violence. We’ve recently partnered with a non-profit in Seattle called Proper Groove.

Also, I drove solo up the West coast and car camped for a two months last year.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can sing for you, teach you a couple of guitar chords, tell you what it's like to answer 9-1-1, paint you something, and/or do your dishes :)
