I'm a street performer/songwriter based in Denver, Colorado (USA) . I spend a lot of time touring, and playing shows in new cities. I spend a lot of time meeting new people. I think it's good for me.

I street perform in between my shows because it is important to me. I think a lot about human connection and vulnerability. I want to be a reminder to people to remain open. To talk about things that sometimes hurt to talk about. To feel human. I'm really lucky street performing and music give me an opportunity to do that.

I'm vegetarian and try my best to make this world a better place in any way you can.

I try to keep a book one of my cameras with me as often as I can. I try not to let them distract me from the people around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spend a good chunk of my life traveling around playing shows. Nothing makes me happier than having people I care about that I get to see along the way. I hope I find some more of them through here :)

Interests

I love music so very much. I genuinely think it has the ability to make us understand others and ourselves better. I think this can make us better people. I also like a lot of other things like stand up comedy, podcasts, and running.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm willing to share anything about myself with others so just ask! I'm a very open person. I'll happily teach you guitar or any other instrument I play. I love learning anything (most things) someone is clearly passionate about.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to help you cook food! I'm trying to be better at cooking especially vegetarian/vegan food.

I also have a lot of stories from countless nights street performing.
