I've been in technology for the past 20 years. Before that, i was:
Professional speaker, mental health counselor, novelist and screenwriter, business owner, paralegal, radio DJ, bartender, busboy, ballroom dance instructor, linguist and Army officer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just doing something new and giving back a little.

But safely. If you don't have any verification on your profile, i probably can't host you. Because i have a house full of girls (and now my mom), i have to be careful about individuals coming to stay - no offense meant!

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

TV - favorites are/were Chuck, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Avatar the Last Airbender (the award-winning Nickalodean series, not the lame-ass live action feature in the theaters)

Books: The Belgariad, The Forgotten Door, Personality Plus, Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, The Five Love Languages, American Gods, and of course Saban and The Ancient (my first but hopefully not only novel)

Movies: That Thing You Do, The Matrix, When Harry Met Sally, The Princess Bride, Inception, The Avengers (well, anything Marvel Studios puts out, which does NOT include those horrible Fantastic Four movies), The Incredibles, and of course Secrets Of The Mountain (the movie i wrote - but maaaaan, they butchered the teleplay...)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Raising two amazing teen daughters.
and i guess having one of my screenplays made into a movie that was on NBC primetime.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love talking and learning about different personalities and what makes people tick!
I have put a lot of thought into how the world works, or should work, on my blog... www.GuyVsMan.com, but i haven't touched it in a while, as i'm working on my second and third novels...

What I Can Share with Hosts

some good stories, a glass of wine and a safe place (double size bed, upstairs) to sleep.

Countries I’ve Visited

Cambodia, Canada
