I used to live in New York, working in the media as a video producer and writer.

I moved to Japan for a fresh start, and love to learn about the country and meet people. I'm very motivated to learn Japanese and talk to people about ourselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see more and more of Japan, but I also want to meet many Japanese people who will help me fully experience their towns and cities. I also want to show people around Kyoto and give them a nice place to stay.

Interests

I love speaking Japanese and reading books.

I also play volleyball, write, and shoot photography of Japan.

I like a lot of Western and Japanese music.

My favorite Japanese artists are 浜崎あゆみ、Do As Infinity, SCANDAL, 柴咲 コウ, シシド・カフカ, and Nujabes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In the States, I was a video director! I worked for several new companies as a writer, director, and producer of sports broadcasts, and many of my projects were broadcast on TV.

Also, I moved to Japan! It was a big change for me, and I'm looking forward to the adventures I'll have here.
