CURRENT MISSION

Trying to build a rock-solid daily creative habit. Also working on a collaborative secret weapon.

ABOUT ME

I’m a very creative person. I illustrate, design, sculpt, 3D print, animate. The list grows and grows. I love trying new things and figuring out their secrets.

I’m a horrible surfer but I still try. I’m an aggressive floater at this point.

PHILOSOPHY

Communication is likely the cause of and solution to your problems.

Expectations are resentments waiting to happen.

Don’t let your fears disguise themselves as patience.

Gordon Ramsay’s scramble eggs recipe is the best recipe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since I've joined couchsurfing.org , I've hosted a few groups of people. Truly it was an amazing experience and has totally enriched my life. My favorite surfers were a group of protestors called "the missile dick chicks". I still have their T-shirt. They were great. Everyone I’ve met has been fantastic.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed with my friend to arizona and had a fantastic experience. Our hosts even gave me their ukulele. I still haven't left the country with couchsurfing yet, but I’m going to change that soon.
