About Me

CURRENT MISSION

do well whatever I do

ABOUT ME

I'm a Portland native. I love making music, meeting new friends, traveling, laughing, being a good person, music festivals, craft beer, teaching you something new!

I like to apply my life experience toward achieving challenging goals that I believe will better my own life and the lives of those around me. I'm really open and outgoing, will talk with you about anything and love making people laugh. I like to participate, party and learn.

PHILOSOPHY

If nothings ventured then nothing is gained.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My roommate and I have hosted people at our house in Portland. I've been hosted and met people through couchsurfing in Central America.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love couchsurfing! All of the people whose couches I stayed on are still my friends today.

Interests

Nightlife, music and dancing. Entertainment and fashion industries.

I like home brewing beer and have done it on and off with good success for about five years.

Synthesizers and music production in Ableton Live.

I like being creative and working with my hands. I like and desire to know the 'why' and 'how' behind things.

I play the cello, read music and am classically trained.

Most importantly I love to dance! If there is a dance party to be had, I will be there!

I listen to a ton of music and feel very connected with it. Some of my favorites are: Deadmau5, Benny Bennasi, Tiesto, Miike Snow, Passion Pit, Boyz Noize, Ghostland Observatory and Phoenix though I could go on and on about this and love to DJ.

Movies: Big Lebowski, Inception, Death Proof, the 5th Element, There Will Be Blood, No Country for Old Men.

I read mostly technical fiction books which I won't bore you with here.
