CURRENT MISSION

Help businesses in Iowa master environmental and social performance.

ABOUT ME

Relaxed, fun, and love to learn new things & meet new people who are excited about life and whatever it is they are up to.

PHILOSOPHY

Find what you love - do it. Find other people who have already done it - ask them for advice. Be happy with you you are, and always strive to be a more authentic "you."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently, I'm moving, so I don't have a couch to offer. But I will be updating that in the next few months when things get settled.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

On this site, very little. But in life, I have backpacked all around the world and love meeting new people and making myself useful if I can.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've lived and worked in Iowa, Okinawa/Japan, Florida Keys, Oahu/Hawaii, Chico/California, Catalina/California, Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Germany (traveled around central Europe).

Teach, Learn, Share

Everything sustainability. Specifically, the psychology of persuasion/influence around environmental issues. Business sustainability. Community organizing. City initiatives.

I'm okay at guitar, recreating outdoors, and I read/watch a ton of books/movies, so I can always recommend something.
