Overview
About Me
Life is short and my bucket list is long. I'm currently in the Neuroscience PhD phase of my program pursuing a better understanding of the human condition. I love philosophical discussions and further opening the minds of myself and others. I'm a huge film buff and love adventure. I don't necessarily finish every hobby I pick up, but I'm into snowboarding, bouldering, espresso, homebrewing, skydiving, slacklining, didgeridoo, and training my german shepherd.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Having felt alien growing up in the South, I've learned that there are better environments for the more free spirited and intellectually curious. Couchsurfing allows me to meet other like-minded individuals both with the intentions of bettering themselves through new experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share
Other than teaching and learning more about my listed hobbies, I'm really good at cooking and can answer any questions about medicine and neuroscience!
What I Can Share with Hosts
Other than a single serving of companionship, I'd like to share a bottle of my current homebrew assuming I don't need to carry my luggage on through TSA or some home roasted coffee beans if my host has a coffee grinder.
