Hi! Im 30yo living in Austin, Tx for the last 10 years. I work in the film industry as cinematographer and director. Currently I’m working on a rock climbing doc called Sol to Seoul. Check out what I do :)

I’m currently solo traveling through Tennessee

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I made my first big road trip last May with my sister and it was one of the best liberating and creative experiences I’ve had. We traveled along the West Coast for two weeks and on top of it all ended up making a music video for a local band. We camped along the way and thanks to amazing people on Couchsurfing we stayed in warm and welcoming homes. Traveling is my way to decompress and renew my creativity.

Ever since then I’ve been taking more road trips. Last year we explored New Mexico and this year Utah (Zion!), Arizona and the gorgeous Joshua Tree National Park in California.

My goal is to road trip around the world and rock climb in every landscape.
