About Me

I'm a Computer Engineering student at the University of Florida (Go Gators!), but currently moving to Huntsville, AL to work an internship with NVIDIA. I love both watching and playing sports, as well as other outdoor/adventurous activities. I also enjoy nightlife, be it going out on the town or partying with friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet cool new people and possibly host travelers once I figure out my housing situation or stay somewhere cool if I travel.

Interests

-Sports and outdoors: Football, baseball, basketball, disc golf, mountain biking, ping pong, snowboarding, rock climbing, body surfing, weightlifting; you name it, I'll try it.
-Beer: I'm always up for a good bar, party, barbecue, tailgate, fair or festival.
-Technology: I am a Computer Engineer and would love to discuss cutting edge hardware, software, devices, etc if you are so inclined.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of the music I listen to is rock: classic, hard, alternative, etc. Particularly Red Hot Chili Peppers, Pink Floyd, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Of Monsters And Men, etc. I also listen to a little bit of rap, country and even some jazz and classical music from time to time.
Favorite comedy of all time: Napoleon Dynamite.
Harry Potter was my childhood; haven't had the time to read for pleasure much since.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed the face of Mt. Rushmore (Lincoln to be exact) without any ropes, grapples, parachutes or pillows, all while avoiding sniper fire from the SWAT team. Then I woke up...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the fundamentals of computing if you so desire... Otherwise I'd love to show you how to play disc golf, football, baseball or ping pong! Open for suggestions as well!

I am a fast learner; teach me what interests you! (Extreme activities, cooking style, art form, etc.)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My sense of humor, a beer or seven, and whatever I bring with me.
