One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was an AmeriCorps VISTA in Baltimore where I spent most of my time interviewing residents in underserved communities. Ask and I'll share great stories.

Otherwise, in Bratislava a rich, 50-something venture capitalist from America treated me and my friends to a night of wild escapades that started in a micro-brewery, progressed to a communist dive bar, and ended in a night club in some catacombs. That was pretty fun.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to talk about ideas. New ones. Old ones. Criticize, hypothesize, and romanticize (ideas).

I like to learn new things. Explore cities. Hear new music. Taste new beers.

I will share everything.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will gladly help cook a meal, or buy ya'll some beer.
