About Me
ABOUT ME
I'd say I'm the laid back goofy kind of guy. A bit artsy/nerdy and always down for some new adventure.
I've had the wonderful gift of travelling often and now I'm getting comfy in Mexico.
A big part of me is Art. I value self expression a lot. I love drawing and anything I can make on the computer. My mission is to make fun educational games. I'm a pretty strong believer that games can teach things in a way that just words cant. I'm a drummer and songwriter and I'm all about playing whatever as long as I'm playing, so lets jam when we hang out!
PHILOSOPHY
"Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
-Steve Jobs
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm a pretty awesome host, just sayin. I love to show people around and explore the town together. Every time I host a couchsurfer it always turns into an awesome adventure :) And I also love to cook with a bunch of people in the kitchen.
And of course anytime I go anywhere I don't stay at a stinky boring hotel. being homeless in a foreign land is probably the coolest thing you can do in life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Beautiful volcanoes in Java, quiet Sahara mornings, powerful Cliffs of Moher,the super successful country of Singapore, Mysterious temples in Cambodia and a little too crazy nightlife in Bangkok, mean streets of Venezuela, endless forest lined roads in Texas, beautiful rain forests of Costa Rica, the swampy gator filled rivers of florida. I'm pretty lucky to live the life I have :)
Teach, Learn, Share
I love teaching people things. I believe that when you teach someone something, it's never about the actual thing you are teaching, but another way of viewing the world.
Things I could teach you about:
Computer animation
How to make games
Drumming and Percussion
Spanish
Photoshop
Drawing
English
3D software: Maya, Blender
Programming
Design/Graphic Design
What I Can Share with Hosts
Just let me know if you'd like anything from where I am and I'll get it for you. Besides that I can always cook for you or just hang out and tell everyone I meet that you're the coolest person around.
