HI! I'm a pretty casual, flexible guy who always likes to make new friends. I always have fun meeting someone new over coffee, juice, or beers. I like being outside at the park, going for a walk just about anywhere, or playing basketball.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, expand my mind, practice listening and sharing across cultures.

Interests

Professional computer programmer and product manager. I love the challenge of taking something from concept to architecture to development to monetization to making customers happy. I like talking tech, but also getting away from it and out into the real world.

Amateur: poi spinner, video gamer, math/philosophy, acro yogi, cooking

Music, Movies, and Books

"East of Eden" - John Steinbeck
"What is Thought?" - Eric Baum
"The History of Western Philosophy" - Bertrand Russell
Old history/letters from the Situationist International

Teach, Learn, Share

What I Can Share with Hosts
