About Me

I discovered CS while in South America and decided to give it a try on a cross country motorbike trip I took in 2017. I had many great hosts and hosted a few great people from around the world when I got home. I love giving back to the CS community when I can and enjoy meeting new hosts and surfers on all of our travels. Hoping to meet more great folks as the days go by. I love talking to interesting people about common interests such as skiing, camping, hiking, running, fitness, nutrition and pretty much anything adventurous and outdoors!

Music, Movies, and Books

Any music works, but usually I stick to classic country/ bluegrass or various forms of rock. The book Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins is one of my favorites. Currently reading About Face by Colonel David H. Hackworth.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen some of the most powerful forces of nature up close. Wildland Fire and Avalanches. Both are true beautiful works of mother nature that if managed improperly can have devastating effects on the life and environment around them. I've also completed a 50 mile ultramarathon and am working at a 100 miler by the end of this year.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you a lot about nutrition for endurance and performance, Wildland Fire, and taxes and personal finance. I am always learning from books and the people I meet.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a very clean person and as long as there is floor space or a couch I would be content!
