About Me

I enjoy long walks on the beach...oops, wrong profile. Let me start again. :)

I'm a Network Administrator (Computer Nerd) by day and Salsa Dancer/Entrepreneur by night. I'm from a small town in northern California and moved to Southern California to pursue my life goals.

I spend my mornings fixing servers and building artificial intelligence bots, my lunch time walking around DTLA listening to audiobooks while I search for hidden cafes/restaurants and my evenings are spent tutoring students in English from around the world. If you need some practice, feel free to shoot me a message. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a passion for knowledge and love learning new things. I was a conversational tutor for over 3 years and shared many experiences with cultures of over 40 students from China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Russia and Brazil.

Couchsurfing is just one more way I can continue to experience the world and share that joy of life with my guests.

I look forward to hosting you and making your time in beautiful Southern California a memorable one.
