Howdy! I'm a creative director/facilitator/digital designer/entrepreneur. I love making graphic and 3D art, motorcycling and dirt-biking, climbing, exploring nature, exploring philosophical discourses, traveling the world, and connecting with new people and new cultures. I'm usually based in the Sierra Mountains of California. I've co-founded a company called Montaia, an international co-living community and remote digital agency that offers branding, web design, and digital marketing services to an innovative global client base. My bio says my work is "informed by a life-long interest in collaboration, community, and inter-connectivity, sometimes known as the “inter-subjective” or “we-space”: an approach that acknowledges that offerings focused on the collective can’t be created by the individual alone." Along with my partner Kaela, I co-produces an international Connectivity Conference which aims to broaden the connections we have with ourselves, each other, and the planet by promoting collaboration, community, and cultural evolution.

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
I love people and the spaces between us. I believe creativity and innovation arrises not from the mind but from conversation, collaboration, and connection. I'm on CS to meet new folks and experience their worlds and share my own. I truly, perhaps naively, want to make this world a better place. One way I know this can happen is through authentic connection. And what's a better way to connect then sleeping on someone's couch in their home in their city.
音乐、电影与书籍
I can't choose a favorite, right now I'm loving season two of Abstract on Netflix. A brilliant documentary series about brilliant designers. Also the Dark Crystal. Favorite books have to be about culture, philosophy, or personal development. If I picked a fiction book it would be Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, without a doubt. Music: whatever Spotify recommends for me. It's gotten to know me pretty well.
我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
Co-created an amazing temporary intentional community for 3-months this year in Bali, Indonesia. I can't take full credit for it but it was the most amazing thing I can remember.
教学、学习、分享
I can teach design, craft, art, basic music, and parkour. I'd love to learn new cooking skills, communication skills, and movement or meditation practices. I can share connections with learning communities around the world.
我能与房东分享的
Let's collaborate or co-create something. Also happy to cook or clean :) I'm very chameleon-like, I would love to drop into a new world and fully experience it by adapting to it. I can sit at home and have a quiet, contemplative conversation, or we can go out on a wild adventure.
