CURRENT MISSION

To know more tomorrow about this world and its people than I do today

ABOUT ME

I love meeting new, interesting people from diverse backgrounds with a wide array of passions. I'm a former investment banker and investor with a very liberal education. I read voraciously and am moved by all kinds of amazing music and art. I believe in experiencing life to its fullest, and try to never pass up interesting opportunities whether they're to just sit and talk with new friends during sunset on a beach, hear new music, explore a new city or nearly anything else.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm in search of my personal philosophy. This past year has been a very introspective and humbling one, in that the more I read the more I realize I don't know. Everything I do is for the ultimate goal of making this world a better place.

I've stayed with and hosted people through the swing dancing community (I've been a jazz DJ for some years), and hosted many CSers. I'm looking forward to meeting some more interesting people
