CURRENT MISSION

Spend less time indoors

ABOUT ME

I studied microbiology in college and realized fairly quickly after graduating that I didn't want to spend my life in the lab. Since then I have been searching for the elusive Dream Job. I am currently working in outdoor education in Oregon and may have just found the almost perfect job. When not working I climb, ski, and run. I love the mountains and spend most of my spare time exploring them.

PHILOSOPHY

Whatever floats your boat. Live life like you are on vacation.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only coach surfed through this site once, but I spent a summer hitchhiking and bumming around the SW climbing. Many couches/floors were utilized for snooze time.

Interests

Creating opportunities for people young and old to access the outdoors and experience nature. Skiing, running, climbing, excessive movie watching.
