I love meeting and spending time with people who are passionate about whatever it is they are doing in life. I'm an industrial designer by day, part time DJ and country line dance instructor by night. On Wednesdays, I teach kids (K-5) how to play volleyball.

I think culture shock is AT LEAST two times more exhilarating than Space Mountain at Disneyland. And I LOVE Space Mountain. Outdoor group meals are the best!

Born and raised in San Francisco and a recent graduate of Long Beach State University in Southern California. I am a die-hard fan of the San Francisco Giants and I have an irrational fear of dropping my keys inside of a sewer grate.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Total CS newbie but I genuinely enjoy making new friends and learning about different life philosophies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'll tell ya when we meet!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share with you what I know about the design process - how to turn an idea you might have into a real, physical product.

I could also teach you basic boxing techniques, country line dancing sequences, photoshop/illustrator skills, how to play volleyball, and how to DJ.
