About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Survive with Style

ABOUT ME

Basics: Graduated Virginia Tech in 2007, served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Honduras 2008-2010, and became a PADI Divemaster in Utila. Just finishing up Grad School and moving out to SF soon.

I believe in continuing education, either at school or on the ground, its your choice.

Love conquers Hate.

Don't trash the planet.

I am always looking forward to that next trip outside of the states.

PHILOSOPHY

Discovery. Discovery. Discovery.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have faith in humanity

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had great experiences hosting and being hosted, whether over night or for dinner and drinks. Can't hurt to send me a message.

Interests

Music. I love listening to music and do so for the majority of my awake hours. It soothes me and moves me. I am a DJ for an independent, noncommercial radio station.

Working out, HIIT, yoga.

The best music is live music.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can´t possibly describe it all but it is wide ranging. I DJ on Friday's at the local radio station. Stream it on www.wuvt.vt.edu/listenlive.

Reading is sexy. I´ll let anyone know my favorites if they are interested.

I like Netflix.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I joined the Peace Corps and lived in rural Honduras for 2+ years. The experience changed my world view and personal view forever.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoying sharing experiences and attitudes. If we can do that, then we will teach and learn from one another in a rather symbiotic fashion.
