CURRENT MISSION

To make the most awesome pictures, film and videos happen all across the country!

ABOUT ME

I am the type of starving artist who feels the "starving" part of that all too often. I am just now beginning to travel more and able to take on jobs around the country. Creating new videos or pictures is what I live for, and I love doing it wherever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe I am here to make sure everyone has a good time, which ensures that I will have a good time. There is nothing that brings me more joy than seeing people's eyes light up with joy and entertainment at seeing something that I have created.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've just now discovered CouchSurfing, but wished I had known about it sooner since I have so many couches at my place. I have a feeling I'll play an awesome host sometime very soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet through this website, but any times through the good people in the Society for Creative Anachronism. The best people are the ones welcoming, courteous, and with lots of personality

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I ever saw was the first time I stood atop the Empire State Building. That may sound cliché, however I had been vigorously walking the streets of Manhattan for a month and found it all so beautiful. To suddenly see every street all at once and know how wonderful each spec in the horizon had been was overwhelming. The scope of it all both showed me how beautiful the litte place are and also reminded me of how vast the world was.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will give myself this: I understand what makes for a compelling image. So if people ever need pictures or short video work done, I am more than happy to offer my advice and technical knowledge as thanks for that wonderful couch.
