About Me

Originally from Boston, moved to Los Angeles 10 years ago to pursue a dream of working in the film business doing visual effects and animation.

I've just returned from 2 years in San Francisco and excited to start engaging with the Couchsurfing community again!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hosting when I'm home. Surfing when I travel. Going to events!

My time traveling taught me how important it is to make connections across the boundaries of nations and cultures.

Interests

Some notable things: Car and go-kart racing, especially F1. Technology, art, philosophy, politics. Stupid jokes. Cat GIFs.
