About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To high-five someone in every country in the world

ABOUT ME

Born and raised NYC, misplaced myself when I went to school in Savannah Ga. Currently I live in Williamsburg Brooklyn, with the rest of the artists. I am currently working for a design firm in mid-town Manhattan where I design perfume and cologne bottles for brands like D&G, Hugo Boss, Valentino etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed my way across the U.S and back, unfortunately I was unaware of this website until recently. But I used this site to help me couch surf in Italy, and it was pretty much the greatest experience of my life.

Also: art, design, anthropology, learning in general, mountain biking, kayak football (you gotta try it), hiking the great outdoors, micro-brews, researching, google is my crack, cars, traveling, exploring, road trips, talking my way out of trouble, telling the best stories

Music, Movies, and Books

Live music is my life, my only real regret is not keeping the ticket stubs to all the concerts i've been too. But I listen to everything, you name it, it's on my ipod. I love film, be it foreign and artsy, or clever and dry. The only better escape from reality then a movie is a book. I don't trust people that don't read.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Highlights:

Private acoustic show with Radiohead (50 people in the audience)

Met David Byrne of The Talking Heads twice, he didn't remember me. (kinda burnt out)

Saw the Beastie Boys first ever concert in Brooklyn

Kicked out of Disney World for "getting rough with mickey". but if you ask me, he had it coming
