CURRENT MISSION

Get in, get out of graduate school but take the opportunity to travel to exotic, beautiful, magical, and mystical places that are pertinent to my research training and career. Even Antarctica is enticing!

ABOUT ME

An eccentric, competitive, joyful jock by phenotype/genotype masked with nerdiness for science and borderline ADHD. I live for the random, trivial, idiosyncratic side of life, in addition to subtly wanting to breed professional football players

PHILOSOPHY

Whoever said it's not about winning or losing probably lost. Oh, you also gotta bring your MFA.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am enthusiastic about meeting new people, both nationally and internationally and catalyzing fantastic, engaging, magical conversations

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had any couch surfing experiences in my lifetime besides the times I bestowed college roomies with random returns to the East Coast.

Interests

Neuroscience, sleep/circadian rhythm research, pole vaulting, randomness, driving with the windows down and the system up, Macedonian conventions, Providence, New England beaches, tropical rainforests, boogie boarding, and Spartan/Bruonian cuckoo and craziness

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I pioneered girls pole vaulting in Ohio high schools.
2. I'm probably one of the few people who received 100 dollars from a church parishioner towards a European trip that was concomitant with an ass grab in front of the priest.
3. The neotropical rainforest, nuff said.
4. Kicked a British bloke's ass (male) in pole vault on his home turf. But he did buy me my first beer.
