CURRENT MISSION

Anything that will make a good story.

ABOUT ME

I love anything to do with art and expression. I am a true dilettante. I love to study the works of Jackson Pollock, Nobuyoshi Araki, Andy Warhol, Mondrian and the other great minds.

Also obsessed with baseball and lacrosse.

Fashion is another of my obsessions -- from Lanvin and Rodarte to Marc Jacobs and Gareth Pugh. I love any sartorial effort, for better or worse.

Traveling, photography, LAX, partying, events production, reading newspapers, lots of volunteer work, studying art and vintage cars, going out.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started but I can tell, from browsing profiles and from the enthusiasm of friends/acquaintances, that this is a beloved community of very special people! I can't wait for the experiences that await, both hosting and surfing.
