About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I feel that our perception of the world is an illusion except for the aspects that we have interacted with and know to be...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For DC Couch Crash 2011 I organized the DC Couch Crash Kayaking, Easter Market Tour, and created the DC Couch Crash Logo.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

For the most part I am active in the local DC CS scene. Commonly I go to quite a bit of local meetups, camping trip, dinner nights, and other types of various events. When traveling I'll use it for getting a locals prospective, either through a meetup or grabbing a drink with someone.

One of the most amazing couch surfing events I have ever been to was a Halloween Party in Munich. Except for the 3 Canadians and 2 Americans, counting myself, it was everyones first Halloween Party. Everyone was decked out in costumes, dancing, and having an all around great time.

Interests

Art, Architecture, Design, and Science are the topics that I most commonly read about. My interestes when it comes to activities are punk concerts, biking, skateboarding, swimming, kayaking, meeting new people, and just shooting the shit over a beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am such an architecture nerd, the things that I am most proud of are the buildings that I have worked on. The amount of heart ache, pain, work, and sleepless nights that goes into architecture is tremendous... For some sick reason it is infinitely enjoyable to me and I would have it no other way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can sew, do bike repairs, silk screen, and know the adobe design suite inside and out. If you have any questions about any of these topic just shoot me a line or ask me in person.
