About Me

I'm originally from St. Thomas USVI and still go down there at times. I live in Los Angeles where I do standup comedy and write television and feature specs. LA's great for sunny weather ALL the time. I like trying new places and experiencing new adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just joined this and figured it's a good way to help others who like to travel. Some of my best friends to this day are people I've met traveling. Still have great friends in Argentina that I met at a hostel. This was before couch surfing was around. I figured if you're a person who's up for traveling... why not help out when I can. Everyone should see as much of the world as they can. So let's make it affordable and fun.

Interests

I prefer warm weather but also don't mind some cold winter days skiing. LOVE food and trying new restaurants. Also love to cook. My dream job has me writing feature comedies so I'm also about trying new things just for the story. Dogs over cats any day, but I don't have either. :-( Maybe one day.

Music, Movies, and Books

Like all music. Depends on what mood I'm in. Although I write comedies... I prefer random movies like Brave Heart/Breakfast Club/True Romance.... some of my favorites. Books... I like to read them very slow cause when I find a good one I never want it to end.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had a dream about skydiving while delivering a baby. Never happened though. Was just weird. But I did go skydiving. It was cool but still haven't had the HOLY SHIT experience. Maybe swimming with Great Whites. But not sure I'm that dumb.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can provide them with my knowledge about Los Angeles. I also live within walking distance to Universal Studios and the red line which gets you to Hollywood and Vine in about 4 minutes. If their up for Karoke or good sushi... I know some spots. Beach... I can tell them where to go and if they're up for meeting people, I have some good friends.
