Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Attack from all angles. Make the most of these opportunities now.
ABOUT ME
I'm a young professional, passionate about the environment and the outdoors. I'm driven, responsible, a people-person, and I like exploring. My word is very important to me, as integrity is the most respectable quality I see in myself and others. I love playing soccer, hiking, salsa dancing, and snowboarding. I tend to keep to myself a bit, until I get to know someone, and then stay quite loyal to my friends. I'm independent, avoid drama, and like to stay active.
PHILOSOPHY
Seek truth in all you do, speak, and think. Each day is an opportunity to re-define, so live out your values as if it's the first day you're doing so. Above all, act with integrity.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I enjoy communal living, and sharing spaces with others. That being said, personal space is important to me - as I sometimes need a break to decompress and I respect that in others as well. Community involvement is especially important to me as a way to relate to our neighbors. I've surfed in Hawaii and Washington DC, and I host in Colorado as much as I can accommodate.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've couchsurfed unofficially a handful of times, and moved around quite a bit when I lived in Denver to get to know several neighborhoods (and myself). I've lived with several different housemates for varying lengths of time. I've been in my apartment now for over a year, so it's been easier to host this past year when people come to town. I enjoy hosting and having friends and family visit as well. I have surfed in DC and Hawaii, and now on my way to New Zealand hoping to connect with the community there.

Music, Movies, and Books
Game of Thrones currently is all I can think about. I'm a new, obsessed fan....
That was a few months ago. Now, I'm in book-reading frenzy and just enjoyed "The Truth about Alice" and "The Night Circus" (mediocre) and "This is Where I Leave you."
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I'm jumped off a bridge 3,000 m above a river in Banos, Ecuador (tied-in of course) and did a pendulum swing.
I've climbed ALL the 14ers in Colorado.
