About Me

I'm a marketing professor and formerly a musician. I enjoy meeting new people and learning about different cultures and perspectives.

My wife is here maybe 1 week a month (she's in Houston finishing grad school). We like to spend that week privately, so I may not always be available to host.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet adventurous people. My wife and I doing long distance right now can make me feel a little bored. Meeting new CS friends makes living in a big new city feel a little bit more interesting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn about new world views, life stories, etc. I teach marketing and statistics as a profession, so I suppose if that interests you, I'm happy to oblige. I love to discuss economics, human behavior, and social sciences in general.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a neat guest and a willing conversationalist.
