Hi, Call me Tife!

I’m a Nigerian Product Designer and Artist living in the Bay Area and visiting New York City for a few days. I have a background in Studio Art and Mathematics with a curious understanding of computer programming particularly in the ways of the web.

I LOVE electronic music, dancing and any kind of artistic expression.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am making the move to LA for a new position and wanted to spend some time in the East Coast exploring the Tri-State Area and visiting friends.

兴趣

I am a visual and UX/UI designer by profession and incorporate photography ad videography as much as I can into my work.

I try to take my DSLR everywhere I go photographing interesting people going about their daily lives.

I am also an avid lover of Funk, Disco and House music. I believe in the power of dance and the ability to just let loose.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am an artist at my very core and currently I spend most of my days exploring the city while taking photos of interesting people. I think taking photos of people is one of the most intimate ways to know people and so meeting strangers and photographing them is my way of getting to know the diverse and eclectic citizens of NYC. I can share my photographs with my hosts.

In addition to photography, I am also an illustrator and enjoy rendering cartoons and illustrations for pleasure and occasionally for work.

I would like to photograph you and your friends if you will allow me
