About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live. Love. Graduate.

I tend to be busy writing papers to finish my master's degree.

ABOUT ME

I am interested in many things and consider myself something of a jack of all trades and would love to be able to say Renaissance Man but I am just not that artistic!

Massage therapist, former technology sales manager until I blew out my back working too hard, now I am forced to take it easy. I used to love to work hard and accomplish things but I now am forced to smell the roses and relax and enjoy what life has to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live...

You get the government you deserve - so register and VOTE

The Present is a gift - enjoy it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a had a couple of very nice folks visit with me for overnights in their travels. I spent a week in PA on an air mattress while working on the Obama primary campaign. All great experiences!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Two visitors and one cancellation so far.
Might start hosting again soon, as I have a nice house to share, once the weather is better and I am not so busy with school.

Music, Movies, and Books

Historical Novels and Biographies, Dramas and Mysteries, I also enjoy some of the better TV dramas, and National and International News. Music of all kinds but I love Scots and Irish music, it stirs and swirls my soul.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Humm... so much to choose from: the best was watching the birth of my three sons, most especially the first one.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very open-minded and politically left and happily liberal.

I used to do professional massage - but my own back injury has made this only a hobby and something I share with friends and select clients.

I love to teach; massage, psychological statistics, evolutionary psychology, and more...

I am happy to teach, talk, and share any and all of the above with individuals, couples and groups, I offer classes in NYC and regionally, through SUNY New Paltz, local organizations, and regional conferences.

I am diversity friendly, pick your difference...
