Software engineer, photographer, cyclist, and rock climber based in Brooklyn, New York. In a previous life, I worked as a tech reporter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To further the radical idea that you can share a home and not have it displace current residents or be a for-profit venture.

But aside from that—I love talking to strangers and welcome every chance to leave my New York bubble. I've made some of my most rewarding, longstanding relationships with strangers I've met out of the blue.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Roma, Hereditary, Call Me By Your Name, Primer. I like slow-grinding films with tiny details in every shot, period pieces, science fiction, and thrillers.

Music tastes veer around, but lately: electronic, ambient, indie rock/pop, hip hop.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you need a snapshot of tech, labor, and privacy issues in the US, I'm your guy. I also fix bikes!

What I Can Share with Hosts

An extra hand with the dishes, bike maintenance tips, dog walking prowess, and, to my friends' chagrin, the uncanny ability to pass out before 1 am.
