Graduated from High school in 1977. Attended and graduated from NMHU 78-82 and earned B.A. degree in 1982. Worked as a Tax and accounting professional for 13 years and worked 25 years as a Medical Device sales executive for 25 years before retiring in 2016. I love to travel, cook , try new foods, make craft beer, meet new people, watch sports, fishing and learning about native cultures.

I enjoy volunteering and helping the poor. I also enjoy teaching people about craft beer and the process of making it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Mostly out of curiosity. I live in a new country now so I am interested in meeting locals and Expats as well. Not sure about staying with or being a host but not totally closed to the idea.

Music, Movies, and Books

Am a big fan of Rock and Roll, R & B, Blues, Jazz, Latino, Reggae and some American folk music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
