About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to be better than I was yesterday, know more than I knew a minute ago, and laugh with as many people as possible.

ABOUT ME

In 3 statements: I love animals, I love EDM music, and I love Kauai, Hawaii. Those 3 statements make up the majority of who I am, why I make the decisions I do, and what I dream of. The rest of what makes me tick is I enjoy working out, I love eating new foods, I've always enjoyed watching anime, and I like trying new things.

I really hate the corporate world and am trying to create a start up right now called ONUGO to help others travel more and experience more in life.

PHILOSOPHY

Every second that passes is another second you'll never see again. That second can pass by unremembered, it can be so heavy it crushes you, or it can be so uplifting that your entire life is made better by a single second. Never forget how important second has the potential to be to yourself and even more-so for others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not sure how to answer this one, but I'll fill it in later :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Never couchsurfed before, but it's something new I'd like to try out.

Interests

I love hiking and anything outdoors where the weather is sunny. I love Kauai, Hawaii and it resonates with who I am more than any place on Earth.

I workout almost every day and really enjoy it. I dance around during most of my workouts in between sets even with everyone watching because I enjoy it so much. Some days it's closer to me going to a club than the gym.

I love EDM music like Afrojack, Tiesto, Alesso, Nicky Romero, Hardwell, etc... Nothing gets me as excited and I smile so much because of it.

Anything with animals is something I'm interested in. Fish, Dolphins, Cats, Dogs, Birds, Turtles, Squirrels, etc... anything and everything. I love them all.

I like anime and I feel it keeps me mentally young sometimes among other things.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy action movies and comedies. I've covered my favorite music genre, but I'm really into anything from the oldies to classical. I've always enjoyed Dean Koontz books since I was young, but nowadays I listen to audiobooks as I do my morning cardio to get my learning on. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with the Manta Rays at nighttime in Kona, Hawaii was the most surreal experience I've had. There's nothing like the feeling of 16 ft creatures swimming towards you with their mouths open so wide only to turn at the last second and barely graze you over and over again like they're putting on a show. I've skydived, swam with dolphins, and flown in helicopters, but swimming with manta rays was on another level of awe.

Teach, Learn, Share

Right now I love learning from entrepreneurs.

I'm not sure what I can teach, but I know once the topic changes to starting your own business, music, or Hawaii I can ramble on for days.
