I am a freelance artist looking to make a living moving to Lincoln, coming in from Chico CA. Very friendly person, clean, animal lover, relatively quiet if needed to be, and very helpful if needed. Very open, not afraid to discuss things with people, not easily offended.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My work is independent, and getting started is very difficult, so the rent that most places offer is just plain unrealistic for me. On top of that, traditional work isn't quite an option for me due to certain factors. I can bring in some money, but until I have a consistent following, I'm not even going to dare challenge monthly rent fees. Any help is tremendously appreciated!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music- Hail the Sun, The Fall of Troy, The Sea in the Sky, pretty much anything post-hardcore, though I'm open to lots of genres.

Movies- not really applicable, not a movie person

Books- Anything by Roald Dahl.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I managed to pull in half a grand off art commissions and grow a triple-digit sized following online starting from no reputation in under a month. (Had to spend most of those funds for various reasons, sadly.)

Teach, Learn, Share

Looking for help expanding my skills as an artist; willing to teach anything in my realm of skills (primarily music, physical training, artwork, writing, caring for felines)

I lack formal training or education, but I have grown up doing all these things and am definitely experienced in these fields. I seek to help people in whatever way I am able to.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cover some degree of rent- utilities at least, due to my commissions and work. I'm also fairly talented in a few areas and can provide manual labor in my fields- artwork, guitar playing, swordplay/improv sparring, animal care (Especially cats), and a few other things.

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States
