I'm a physician assistant working in emergency medicine in DC. I grew up in NJ and I moved here in the spring of 2015. I'm still always finding new places to explore and things to do but I'm happy to call DC my home now.

I'm a pretty laid-back person and I find I can get along with just about anybody. I love good food, good drinks, and good company. I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, swimming, beach-bumming, traveling, and exploring the city.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore new places, try new foods, and make new friends.

I'm currently not in a position to host but I'm willing to meet up.

Scuba dove in Phi Phi

Hiked to the End of the World in Portugal

Played with baby elephants in Chiang Mai, Thailand
