About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Publish, not perish!

ABOUT ME

I am an electrical engineer, in the subfield of communications and signal processing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted, and I'm interested in surfing when I get the chance.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My household in Boulder, CO has hosted quite a few couchsurfers (they appear on my current and former roommates' profiles). I've met mostly students from all around the world and have had a great time in the process. Indeed, some of the people who stayed at our place loved Boulder so much that they moved here (and we are still friends)!

Interests

Music (I play piano, was a choir member throughout my youth, and have an electronic drumset I like to make noise on)

Languages: learning a language is one of the best things anybody can do with their life, hands down.

Computers: We are now members of a digital age, and it's a good thing.

Hiking, running, soccer, biking, skiing (cross-country, downhill, and water).

Music, Movies, and Books

Soooo many. My favorite author is Italo Calvino (and my favorite book is Invisible Cities, by Calvino). there's too many to name at the moment, as my stomach is grumbling and I need to feed it, so I'll just mention the last book I read: The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet, by David Mitchell (a wonderful book, I strongly recommend it).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have climbed three 14ers in Colorado.

Teach, Learn, Share
