About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My chosen path leads me all over the globe to exhibit, teach, study and perform. Meeting new and interesting people, exchanging ideas, culture, and sharing passion for life is what I'm all about.

ABOUT ME

I am a full-throttle artist. Masters degree in Sculpture from Pratt Institute, NYC. I do Printmaking, woodwork, design, installation, photography, dance, acting for stage and film, comedy....

It is my strong desire to travel around the world imbuing time and space with wonder and charging it with imagination!

PHILOSOPHY

The word art means, literally, "To be" It is a state of mind and mood existing in a person, not an arbitrarily selected field of activity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to be an active member, supporting others who want to taste, touch, see, hear, and smell the world around them. Ever since I was a kid, I wanted to be able to host and make friends with people from all over the world. I learned early on that TRAVEL IS THE BEST FORM OF EDUCATION. In this crazy world, I want to reach out and build bridges, making it a more interesting and creative place to inhabit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As an artist, I have done my share of couch surfing. I am used to living lean and traveling light. I haven’t been involved on the app for quite some time, but I’m planning on traveling more this year and hope to make the most of it.

Interests

cycling, camping, soccer, yoga, dancing freestyle, laughing my ass off.

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently reading "Wizard" the biography of Nikola Tesla. Looking forward to Mark Twain's Autobiography. Dave Eggers, "What is the what", was a book I could not put down. Chuck Klosterman is a good read, as is David Sedaris.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been fortunate enough to have had several amazing experiences in this life. One that stands out is having exhibited sculpture and photography and performing improv dance (as well as giving a lecture) at a National Museum in Taiwan.

Teach, Learn, Share

I practice yoga and can link people up with several places to practice while in town. I am a comedian as well and can hook people up with local improv jams. I can introduce people to the local art scene as well.

Countries I’ve Visited

Costa Rica, Ecuador, Greece, Haiti, Italy, Puerto Rico, Taiwan, Thailand, Turks and Caicos Islands, United Kingdom
