Grad student and professional doing my best to get away from both of those things as often as possible. I work at a university as a principal software engineer while simultaneously pursuing a master's degree in Computer Science and Engineering there. My goal with my job is to fund my travels and exploration, so every summer I have off I travel extensively.

Love traveling, snowboarding, dining out, and good beer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet local people, learn their stories, have good company, and find accommodation as I travel the world.
