CURRENT MISSION

“It is not the brains that matter most, but that which guides them -the character, the heart, generous qualities, progressive ideas.” -Fyodor Dostoyevsky

ABOUT ME

My friends might say that I am "purposefully spontaneous." My goal is to be prepared for engaging every experience for good. And in the process love others as myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Love others as yourself.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting can be just as rewarding as traveling. Given the opportunity, I will make the most of traveling with CouchSurfing. But while my roots are planted in Oklahoma City, I'll let travel come to me. Used with caution, this is can be fantastic network for stepping outside yourself and learning about "the universe next door."

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Just one?

Climbed three 14ers in one day.

Breakfast in Switzerland, lunch in Italy, dinner in France in one day.

Spontaneous round-trip flight to Denver from OKC for under 100 bucks to visit old college buddies.

Lived and studied at L'Abri in Switzerland for 7 months.

Built a piano that doubles as a hidden TV entertainment center. Who wants the TV to be the center of the living room? I much prefer music and conversation to be the centerpiece of the living room, but when you want to watch a great movie or sports game, the TV needs to be front and center. Solution? Pianovision. Ask me about it!
