CURRENT MISSION

Hosting CouchSurfers, making new friends, and planning my next trip.

ABOUT ME

Grew up in a small town on Lake Michigan, then work in public policy in Washington, DC, now working as a consultant in Chicago, IL. Also taking graduate classes in economics at George Mason University. Outside of work and grabbing a pint from friends in DC, love to snowboard, hike, rockclimb, take in live music, read, and of course, travel.

PHILOSOPHY

Very laid back and easygoing. Try to practice the golden rule and reciprocity at every turn. A strong belief in individualism but also of the mentality that individuals must help and empathize with one another.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking to couchsurf and host couchsurfers. Promise to build goodwill by not being a god-awful host or house-guest. I haven't always been incredible at responding to requests in the past but I'm trying to do better. I promise to get to your request promptly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Recently started using the website, though I've been hearing about it from friends for some time now. Looking forward to my first experiences.
