About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To figure out what my super power is

ABOUT ME

I'm 100% Puerto Rican, spent most of my life in the Northeast of the United States. Into the arts, primarily film and music, but not pretentious about it. Went to film school at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, and now I'm aspiring to be a successful voice actor, hopefully one day replacing aging deep-voiced legends such as James Earl Jones and, yes, even Morgan Freeman. Gotta dream big! I also use what I learned in school to freelance for ESPN, privileged to get paid to have the best view in the house for a variety of sports, right on the field/court. I love latin dancing (merengue, bachata, salsa), drinks with fun people, and learning new things every single day.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is a sin not to do what one is capable of doing." -Jose Marti

"Hakuna Matata" -Timon and Pumba

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm strictly a surfer, but in a few months I'll be moving back to NYC, where I'll gladly open my home to fellow surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I owe a beer to whoever invented the couch. In the United States, I'm fortunate to be part of a national fraternity so I usually can stay with nearby brothers wherever I travel within the country. Couches, floors, bathtubs, I do not discriminate. Now that I'm planning an international trip, I'm fairly new to the couchsurfing-with-awesome-strangers scene but am very excited to see what new experiences this brings my way!
