Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Live free and help others live free.
ABOUT ME
After finishing my MBA in California, I've been working at a Silicon Valley tech company.
Prior to my masters, I was in the US Navy, including a couple years living in Japan. The Navy gave tremendous opportunities to learn and travel. I am extremely blessed with amazing friends I've met through CSing and foreign militaries.
PHILOSOPHY
Man's greatest gift and responsibility is free will. I believe that people should be able to make choices for themselves.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love how Couchsurfing has groups within major cities that do activities together. I didn't discover this until I lived in Seattle and got a chance to hang with the group there. It was great going camping with a group of instantaneous friends when I first arrived to the area.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
During the summer of 2008, a buddy of mine introduced me to CS while we surfed in Boston. I was hooked am always looking to host people and long for the day that I'm in a bigger city once again so that I can join other CSers at CS parties.
Couchsurfing is so much more than a free couch. It's often difficult finding like minded people in a hotel, bar, or sitting on the beach. It's a great way for connecting people who are interested in exploring the world around them.
Interests
Love exploring new places, learning about the history, and checking our bars with local character for a cocktail.

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: Taylor Swift, Craig Morgan, Rasal Flatts, Death Cab For Cutie
Books: Admittedly, I'm not much of a reader when it comes to books or novels. However, I enjoy picking up the local paper, reading a terse article on a new medical discovery, and listening to short stories on NPR.
