I just graduated a few weeks ago, and I'm excited to start this new phase of my life as a young professional actor/theatre-maker, struggling to get work, achieve expression, and make ends meet. I consider myself a very right-brained person, and tend to excel more in creative tasks than logistical ones. I've lived in New York for four years now, and will likely call it home for the rest of my life. I am always up to explore, try new things, eat new things, and have a very good time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm in Europe for a couple of months! I'll be doing a one-month devised theatre intensive in Berlin. I figured that since I'm already buying the expensive plane ticket across the Atlantic, I might as well do some traveling while I'm here.

Interests

At this point of my life, I spend most of my time concerning myself with music, theatre (but not musical theatre), food, alcohol, life after graduation, what I want to educate myself on, achieving originality, and forming close friendships.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My favorite travel experience was probably a tropical ecology trip to Belize. First, we stayed in the rainforest, going on hikes, swimming near waterfalls, and observing jungle wildlife. Then, we stayed on a small island off of the coast, where we went snorkeling along the Belize Barrier Reef and studied the flora and fauna of that region.
