CURRENT MISSION

To find my place in this great big confusing world.

ABOUT ME

Born and Raised in Austin Texas. I've been learning how to draw and tinkering with graphics software since as long as I can remember.

PHILOSOPHY

Shit can be rough. C'est la vie. It can also be really amazing. All we can do is roll with the punches, and enjoy the ride best we can. Maybe if you got your shit together you can leave the place lookin' a little better than when you got here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment, I'm surfing around couches in Austin while I look for work with which I can support myself and find a real living situation. Once I've settle down I plan to return the favor to the world and open my couch to the world as so many have kindly done for me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Most of my couch surfing experience is from crashing at a friends place when visiting Austin over the weekend while I was at school in the Dallas area. More recently however, I spent approximately three months surfing at Rosewood Co-op in Austin while I've been looking for more reliable work and a living situation tog o with it. I'm currently surfing around other places now.

Hiking the Valle Vidal in New Mexico. Breathtaking. I have no words.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share illustration techniques as well as software skills in a wide range of graphics technology - including but not limited to the Adobe Creative Suite, Austodesk Maya and 3D Studio Max, and several open source alternatives to these programs. I can also teach hooping and the basics of acro yoga.
