About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just moved to San Diego. Looking for a job and a place to live!

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in a tiny little backwoods community along the Gulf Coast of north Florida. Love all kinds of music, but especially hip-hop, blues, rock. I appreciate a wider definition of art, and practice some myself with my leatherwork (have had and will have another working studio) and amateur photography.

I graduated from Florida State University, worked some good jobs, some crap jobs, always looking to move elsewhere.

I now live in San Diego, where I am pursuing teaching certification and the opportunity to open another art studio.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy. Or is that too cliche? Seriously though, that about sums up the two biggest parts of my lifestyle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have spent some time with some great hosts as I moved from Florida to California. Now I just need a couch to offer so I can spread the love.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My surfing experience includes visiting friends and family in places both near and far, as well as offering my couch/spare room to those same people in return. I have also been fortunate enough to find hosts/friends as I moved across the U.S.

Interests

A few of my favorite things in no particular order: , leatherworking, art, history, camping, reading, beer, driving, food, cooking, hiking, football, soccer, basketball, exploring, dogs, cats, vintage cars, movies, video games, beaches, mountains, woods, fires, working with my hands, light-hearted intellectual conversations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I would rather not try to list them all. It would take forever. Suffice it to say, I have a deep interest and a huge appreciation for an extremely wide variety of movies, music, and books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

16 days and 4000 miles from Florida to California, just me and my dog.

Teach, Learn, Share

Leatherworking, dog training, carpentry, vehicle repair, camping, love for sharing and expanding my knowledge of American Studies(cultural history and its interwoven connections).
