About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world.

ABOUT ME
I just quit my job as a software engineer and am looking to travel a bit before I start a PhD Program at the University of Michigan. Before that I backpacked around South America for 3 months solo, then spent a month in Vietnam. I graduated from University in the United States (Syracuse University). I studied Computer Science and Mathematics.

I'm not done traveling just yet!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am new to couch surfing, but think it is a great way to travel on a university student's budget. I am also excited to meet new people and get a new perspective.

Interests

I am a bit of a nerd (ie. studied computer science), but also enjoy hanging out and having a good time. I am in a competition to see who can drink more, unique beers. so I am always interested in trying new beers.
I also brew my own beer.

I am a nationally ranked fencer in the US. I like long distance cycling, reading, and watching movies.
