Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As a traveling entertainer, there are times when I must be asked to perform outside of NY at a moment's notice and I have always enjoyed connected with new people, thus the reasons I am learning so many languages. To grow and truly live, one must be able to speak to many cultures! So, why not travel for my career and fulfill a passion of mine as well!

Interests

Ice cream, pizza, dogs. I don't want to write out a list, but the truth is I enjoy experience moments. And being in entertainment, I love movies, and well written books.

Music, Movies, and Books

Metal, Rock, Jazz for music. Shawshank Redemption is my favorite movie. And I love any book about the process of success.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I stopped a fight with 10 people surrounding one person simply by talking everyone down. They were going to attack this kid at a show because he asked the band's guitar player to join his band. When the rest of the band found out them and their friends came after him. I stepped in and talk them down to the point where they slowly walked away and finally the main guy ended up speaking with me about pottery.

Teach, Learn, Share

I write an educational blog on success through the power of Networking, Marketing, and Practice. I feel the world should share knowledge so others may have a chance to succeed in life.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Laughter! I enjoy listening to people.
