Born and raised in Athens, Georgia.

Spent my whole life living within the state, except for a few sabbaticals up north and abroad. Love to travel, meet new people on their own journeys, make connections with strangers. You never know.

Do unto Others... We're all in this together.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hosting when I can. I love showing people the sites and the surrounds. Love surfing as well when traveling. It's a chance to engage with the places I visit on another plane.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm an Eagle Scout.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an artist (by default). Early American (1680-1840ish) decorative arts are my main interest. I've studied at a few museums as well as and independently.

But that's not all... I studied art history in college and have an appreciation for almost all forms and styles and periods.

I currently live in downtown Savannah.
