Overview
About Me
Born and raised in Albuquerque and graduated from the University of New Mexico, then I got out to explore the world a bit.
I lived in various towns and cities on the east coast doing gig work for a year before joining Peace Corps Timor Leste where I worked with community development in the rural mountains of Liquica, after I was done I continued living in country and working with Arte Moris. Then it was grad school in Normal, Illinois. Now I have been in DC a few years and working in development at a nonprofit.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The reason I am hosting is because I have a deep appreciation for locality and love to share this when I can. The reason I will be surfing is that I think there is something beneficial about living with someone who has lived in a place to give perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books
My music taste is a lot of electronic and a little bit of Americana, country and indie.
My favorite movie of all time is Gattaca but I love movies that make you think about the world a little differently.
My taste in books tends to be historical fiction and fantasy.
