CURRENT MISSION

Hey! After traveling for a few years I have finally settled down in Salt Lake City for a more permanent stay. I am working towards my goals of getting in to medical school and typically ski or climb when I am not doing that. My current job is working with adolescents at the University Neuropsychiatric Institute.

ABOUT ME

Im a pretty kind/caring person with an easy-going nature. I am usually up for whatever adventures are offered to me! I like to ski, climb, and play around my new place in Utah. I also enjoy cooking at home, watching movies, playing games with friends, grabbing a pint at the local breweries, going out dancing.

PHILOSOPHY

To explore and find something new. Non-religious

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have done some hitchhiking throughout the US and Europe. Backpacked around Colombia, Panama. Sailed across the Pacific Ocean. Spent several summer in Alaska. Several people helped me on my way and I want to pay it forward! Plus I like a little spontaneity in my life.

Interests

My favorite days are spent in the outdoors as I've mentioned skiing and climbing. I also like painting, woodworking, going to libraries and museums, making coffee, brewing beer, reading, playing guitar, banjo, or trying to mix up some random beat on garage band.
