CURRENT MISSION

Working with progressive millennial candidate campaigns and achieving Medicare For All by 2028. Also cooking good food, learning languages, and writing spy stories that nobody will ever read.

ABOUT ME

I'm a strategist (aka stinking thinking) who's worked on everything from viral videos to machine learning and robotics, and even a presidential campaign for a senator from Vermont. Most recently, I managed a victorious insurgent political campaign in Pennsylvania.

I originally studied film and television, worked in reality TV, wrote cartoons, before writing a thesis on Internet Memes. I was one of the first academics studying memes, which lead me to work with YouTube and Google and brands.

I'm also an excellent house guest and am very proud of that and my experience as a classical percussionist growing up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travel. I'm an extrovert/introvert, but recharge best when I'm touring, experiencing new things, and learning about new cultures and communities. I also hate hotels since they're so weird and lonely, so I'm always looking to meet new people and see what it's like to actually live in the places I'm visiting.
