I am a rising junior studying computer science and game design at Cornell in Ithaca, NY. I am a fraternal twin, 1 of 4 male siblings in my family. In my free time I like to get involved with social work and study national (some international) political issues. When I graduate I would like to at least get my MSW and perhaps take graduate studies in computer science. I am looking to get a job internationally once my education is finished :)

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

This is my first time leaving the US and I am doing so on a scholarship from my university, so I really can't afford to explore Europe that much. By couch-surfing I would have a much easier time affording trips to some of the cities I have been wanting to visit for years. Also, although I can't host now, I would love to be able to host someone later this year to pay the experience forward for anyone that wants to visit the US/New York.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I can vibrate and displace my arms from their sockets (voluntarily)

Insegna, impara, condividi

I am prettyyyyyy good at English and can teach you all the slang that will amaze your European friends. I can also be a great wingman unless I'm attracted to the person you are hitting on. Some of my friends are drag queens. I am very flexible and will show you for a nominal fee. I snore quieter than the average guest.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

I can show you actually good American shows, because Friends is so old and why is it so popular it has a laugh track....... I'm also probably the first and last person from Oklahoma you will ever meet because the state has a population of 12 so you can ask me all your Oklahoma related questions such as: "Where is it on a map?" "What do you guys do there?" "Is Oklahoma like New York City?" "Is Oklahoma like California?" "Is Oklahoma the South?"

I can also share the secrets of everyone close to me.
