CURRENT MISSION

To be the change I want to see in the world.

ABOUT ME

I love being outdoors and exploring, but I also love gadgets and physics and math and video games and the internet.

I recently graduated with a degree in Engineering and during that time most of my experience was in designing automated biotech equipment. Since then I've been working in precision optics manufacturing.

PHILOSOPHY

“For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I primarily host, though I have been hosted by others a few times. I'm also down for meeting up and having a beer or a chat or both!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had a lot of adventurers stay with me, and I've stayed with a few others on road trips or out exploring new cities. Everyone I've met through this community has far exceeded my expectations!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live a short bike ride from downtown and a short walk from the beach. I like to show guests around town if I'm able, maybe take you to some of my favorite restaurants/bars, and generally just have a good time enjoying life.
