About Me

I currently reside in Seattle, Washington. I grew up in Rhode Island, lived and studied in Australia for 4 years, and came to the Northwest in 2014. In taking a break from my professional life to do some more travel in Asia!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I really enjoy the company of others. I grew up with 8 siblings and have always sought out new and interesting perspectives and lifestyles. I'm very comfortable around others and can read mood and body language like a book!

People have character, and any time there is an option, I prefer to stay with and learn from others over staying in a hotel.

Interests

They stretch far and wide. I was lucky enough to study Psychology and History in a foreign country and really enjoy conversations about human behavior, science, space, history, business, evolution of all things, etc. etc.

I'm an avid outdoorsman and photographer. I love timelapse photography as well as landscapes. I love cycling, kayaking, trekking, climbing, any many more.

Every year, the list gets longer and longer....

  • books
  • photography
  • cooking
  • cycling
  • kayaking
  • rock climbing
  • business
  • history
  • psychology
  • science

Music, Movies, and Books

Right now I'm into psychedelic rock, blues, chillwave, folk. With Spotify and Youtube, this list is always changing as well.

I'm really not that into movies, but love the Batman series, and anything sci-fi.

Books? Seth Godin, Carl Sagan, Malcolm Gladwell, many more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A buddy and I rode our bicycles 3200 km across the Australian continent. The trip took 34 days and was a breathtaking journey.

What I Can Share with Hosts
