I collect ideas. The world is shaped by peoples perspectives of it and I want to see every bend in the pipe. I use it to shape my art practice. Art will not only narrate history, but also illustrate what it was the be there experiencing it personally every day. I will geek about art if given the chance and most of my life revolves around creative oddities. I am a professional photographer, model, and I'm studying for the LSAT. Law is so much like fine art - its all about redefining terms we take for granted and reshaping peoples perspectives on the world. If it can turn my world on its head, I'd love to hear about it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would fly out to see the polar vortex firsthand just to experience it. I travel a lot for work - I'm a runway and print model. If I need to crash at your place thats probably why I'm there. It doesn't pay well, but its such an odd type of work and I love oddities.

Interests

Dude I just want to experience peoples passions - show me why stamp collecting is fascinating and I'll show you why that blank canvas in a museum is a masterpiece.
