About Me

I'm originally from the San Francisco Bay Area and now live in New York.

I think now is the best time in the history of the world, and it's only getting better. I find it strange how few people share that view.

I grew up in the Bay Area, went to college on the East Coast, worked in New York and then San Francisco, Seattle and now New York again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've slept on a lot of friend's couches while travelling, so it seems like a good way to give back. I'd like to meet cool people and hear their stories.
