hey! im a jack of all trades, master of none. ive lived all over the united states and currently reside in europe with my partner and two doggos. ive worked a variety of jobs from kitchens to apple orchards to software engineering to now working as a FOSS (Free Open Source Software) contributor. i enjoy pretty much everything, from hiking national parks to day drinking at the brewery. i love food and always happy to cook a meal. always looking for recommendations on good dive bars and punk venues!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

im traveling the US by amtrak train, looking to stay in small towns along the way with cool people who know the areas. longer term, id like to host and meet people when im settled back in Europe!

Music, Movies, and Books

anything doom/stoner/death/black/etc metal, punk rock, jazz, indie, weird stuff. most everything by A24 for movies. boondock saints, however, will always be the greatest movie of all time. too many books to list, brothers karamazov is the undefeated best. currently reading "governing the commons," by the late great elinor ostrom.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hiked up to the annapurna basecamp in nepal.
