CURRENT MISSION

Finish my MS in Oceanography and get as much professional photography experience as possible!

ABOUT ME

I love to travel and meet new people. I've have slowed down a little bit on the travel since I entered graduate school several years ago.
I'm currently interning with Plota Productions to get industry standard experience with location photography. Then I hope my MS and travel history will get me a job at Nat Geo or the like.
I'm back and forth between Sarasota and St Petersburg almost every day and occasionally Tampa so shoot me a note. It'd be fun to meet up sometime.

PHILOSOPHY

Living life as fully and harmoniously as possible. Being present and aware.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live my life with the assumption that everyone I meet may be my new best friend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I wandered around India and Japan quite a bit. Once while hitchhiking in Shikoku, I was picked up by a young Japanese couple who took me hundreds of miles out of their way and then took me home and put me up for days hosting me around their town. It was one of the most delightful experiences of my life.
