CURRENT MISSION

To experience the world, meeting cool people and seeing great art along the way.

ABOUT ME

Recently returned to Louisville after completing my masters at Wash U in fine art. I am sculptor and an adjunct professor of studio drawing, sculpture and art history. Trying to keep from being a starving artist. Love to travel and learn different ways of doing things and meeting new people- experiencing all the art I can along the way!

PHILOSOPHY

"Art is necessary. Not merely as a beautiful adjunct to life, but as a means of proposing betterness to the world. Art reflects this world, with all its flaws and tensions, but it also shows other possible—or impossible—worlds. All art carries within it the power to expand our point of view. It illuminates both the path we aspire to take through life and the unexpected route we might not otherwise see."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have hosted a few times through a previous roommate's profile while living in St. Louis, Missouri US. Surfed while traveling Europe, and looking forward to hosting in Louisville KY.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

CS experiences have been very positive getting to know a group of surfers from Turkey and another from Russia. Had a great time showing them around the city, learning about their cultures and drinking and cooking meals together.
