CURRENT MISSION

Grow through new interaction

ABOUT ME

I recently graduated from Emory University in Atlanta in May 2013, and moved back to my hometown, Reno. I have since helped manage a local art festival (ARTown), pursued my studies in mathematics with further coursework, and spent a lot of time at an artist collective in Reno known as the Generator. I recently applied for a Burning Man art grant for 2014. I also have been recovering from a shoulder surgery, which is a primary reason I have stayed in Reno.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in the individual.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to share some of my ideas and experience with others, while likewise learning from others. I don't currently have an available couch, but I'm looking forward to hosting couch surfers when I have a more permanent living situation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met a girl on a plane home from school once and ended up crashing at her place in Big Sky Montana two months later. Since then I have surfed in Brazil and the United States, staying with people from this website and otherwise.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite author is probably Steinbeck, but I love literature, philosophy, and anything that challenges me to think differently.
I enjoy most music, especially live. I'm a Deadhead who loves any music I can get my hands on, practically. Genres include, but certainly aren't limited to Psychedelic Rock, Progressive Rock, Blues, Jazz, Bluegrass, Country, House, Glitch, Downtempo, Midtempo, and anything with a groove and a good noise.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ive been to some very beautiful places around this world and met some amazing people. I think it would be a diservice to prioritize a single thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

What else is there to share with people other than ideas?

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, France, Italy, Mexico, South Africa, Spain, United Kingdom

Countries I’ve Lived In
