CURRENT MISSION

Saving the world through architecture.

ABOUT ME

Creative entrepreneur. Three careers later, I've jettisoned the idea of a corporate job working out for me. I design, I teach, and I'm learning every single day.

Though I'm not a perpetual traveler, I can't seem to settle in one location too long to call one city my home. One of my happiest memories is having only "dos maletas" and living in 4 cities (Barcelona, Philadelphia, LA, and Chicago) in one year. Different people asking me where I'm from may get different answers, and I would not be dishonest. The planet is my home. At the moment, I'm looking for the next city to park my two suitcases.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love learning about people and different cultures and there's no better way to do this than total immersion.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Witnessed $50,000 of chocolate go down the drain. Literally.

Teach, Learn, Share

I might be able to teach you a thing or two about interior design, architecture, how to meditate, and even some math and physics if that floats your boat.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories... Maybe you'd be interested in learning about bumper assembly, emergency chocolate tasting, casino design, and putting 7 feet of snow on a roof deck?
