Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Traveling is all about community and connection. Plus, I'm working on a personal photography project (http://bit.ly/NudePortraitsPhoto) that involves travel and photographing strangers, so I'm using Couch Surfing as a way to be able to plug into a community quickly.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: The Head and the Heart, Vampire Weekend, Ratatat and Taylor Swift obviously. Books: Searching for Bobby Fischer & The Art of Looking Sideways.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I never went to college and I'm a self taught photographer. When I was 23 I got hired to be a staff photojournalist at a small newspaper in Southern Utah. Because there are so many photojournalism graduates, getting a job without a degree in the field is pretty rare, so I'm pretty proud that I got that job without a degree. A few years ago I photographed a protest that was part of the Arab Spring when I was living in Amman, Jordan. That was an amazing experience.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could endlessly lecture about photography to the point of malnutrition. If you want advice and opinion, I'm your guy.
What I Can Share With Hosts
My passion for meeting people and my love of creation.
My Interests
Photography, journalism, soccer, feminism.
