CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I'm a software developer at a startup accelerator named Y Combinator. Before that I finished a Ph.D. on copyright history at Notre Dame, and before that I played music and read philosophy. I love books and riddles.
PHILOSOPHY
How grateful I am now to be part of the mystery, to love and to be loved.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm just returning to couch surfing after many years off the platform!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Boy I'm happy this site still exists. I couch surfed as a poor graduate student to travel to conferences across the US. I would love to do a proper Polynesian backpacking adventure some day...
