About Me

I’m going on a cross country trip soon and won’t be back for 3-4 weeks, to build a new landscape portfolio to sell prints and submit for shows, interview strangers along the way, make short movie clips, and arrive on the west coast to hopefully meet my music god and see whether he’ll help create a soundtrack for my ultimate project. The project will be about my solo journey and I will present it to a company that I have wanted to work at for awhile.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on a tight budget and will be doing a lot of camping but it would be nice to fresh-n-up every once in awhile. I also want to meet a lot of people and start new friendships.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love all types of music and movies.

For books I mainly read non-fiction and self help — love learning about myself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a summer in Tuscany, IT as a Digital Lab Manager. And on my days off I'd travel the country side on ATV. Can't wait to do something like that somewhere else in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching photography and photoshop. I like helping non-creative types to see that indeed they can be creative.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've been told I'm a good listener, decent cook, and awesome help with kitchen cleaning afterwards.

I'm also:
Very polite
Courteous
Funny
Insightful
Kind
Generous
