I'm a filmmaker who was raised in Southern California, and spent most of my life in Los Angeles.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it's nice to occasionally hang out with people who you can get into conversations with while you're trekking around from one spot to the next.

Music, Movies, and Books

I grow up very much into punk, metal and hip hop, and I still love those genres, but my taste has opened up considerably since then. Love horror movies, documentaries, old foreign films (R.I.P. Filmstruck). Big fan of history books and biographies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was a teenager I was hired to try to bring an illegal immigrant across the US/Mexico border.
