CURRENT MISSION

To explore other countries while performing or training.

ABOUT ME

I am an actress, filmmaker, and aerialist. I love to work on films and shows that take me to other countries and give me the opportunity to learn about other cultures. Before getting back into acting and aerial, I used to produce travel shows, my favorite being Globe Trekker.

I graduated from UC San Diego where I studied Biochemistry/Cell Biology and Theatre, gave up a position in a biotech lab, and immediately after went backpacking around India. Soon after returning home, I was cast in a Nepali film, so went back over to that part of the world for awhile. Since then I've been acting and producing documentary film/TV programmes with with strong international cultural themes.

I've moved around in recent years from California to London to Dublin, where I currently live. At some point, I'd love to live in Mexico City.

PHILOSOPHY

As long as you're kind, loving, and respect all walks of life, you'll be ok.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I can meet for a coffee or drink. Depending on my work schedule, I might be have time to show you around Dublin a bit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some wonderful couchsurfing people throughout my travels in India and stayed a few days at a couchsurfer's apartment in Mumbai while he was out of town. He just had a friend hand us the keys! So kind and trusting!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I floated 1 foot above the most massive sea turtle imaginable and hung out with him for half an hour while he ate his dinner.
