I'm a "digital nomad", i.e. I work remotely in software and travel :)

My main passions are Artificial Intelligence, Consciousness, Mental Health, and Creativity.

I am a creative at heart; half scientist, half artist.

I value and cherish other perspectives and ways of being shared with me. Always working towards being a better person and building meaningful, loving relationships with people :)

I enjoy a wide variety of hobbies, activities, and topics of discussion. I'm very curious, continually learning and always excited to share with others. It is a privilege to teach and to learn from other people. I've had some wild experiences in my life and hope to continue to have wild experiences shared with the beautiful people I meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here to make new relationships with beautiful people.
