I'm a product development engineer with Ford.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to see the world and meet new people. If I can do that on the cheap and help others do the same, it seems like a good plan.

Interests

I play a variety of instruments, and I'm always happy to provide accompaniment. I will never pass up the opportunity to learn how to cook a new dish. I also enjoy the outdoors, be it boating, hiking, or whatever.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have a penchant for the pulp writers of the 20s and 30s, particularly H.P. Lovecraft and Robert Howard, but I'm also a fan of Terry Pratchett.

Teach, Learn, Share

I also have a prodigious knowledge of beer and wine which I love to talk about. I'm out to learn how to toast in every culture. I can also teach you everything you want to know about electric motors and converters.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can't sing, but I can provide guitar accompaniment to those who can, and I am a damn good cook.
