I am a filmmaker living in Bozeman, Montana. I hail from Chicago, where I was a film producer for the Onion Newspaper for many years. I live in the mountains now, working on documentary film projects and spending most of my time climbing, running, biking, snowboarding and being a nature geek. //\\ If I'm road-tripping, I'll have a bike, running shoes, climbing gear, guitar, growler and a bunch of books. I'm looking to see live music, eat good food and meet good people in new environments!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to camp or sleep in my car. I don't need many amenities - just safety! That being said, I'd rather spend my money on experiences than lodging. I'm happy to help out around the house, buy you beers or cook for ya!

Interests

biking, climbing, cooking, getting nerdy about films, comedy, many genres of music, and of course the liquid trifecta of coffee, wine and beer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was a kayak guide in Alaska while on summer break from college.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm savvy with cameras, editing software, and visual storytelling devices. I'm also a pretty good athlete and can play in a pickup game, bike long distances, lead a 5.10 or hack my way up a trail run! I love to be active with others, share experiences and good food/drink!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can give decent camera/editing software/adobe suite tutorials, play with your pets and tire your pup on a long run, cook/treat you to a meal, wine/beer/coffee/flowers/chocolate/etc! And of course offer you my spare room when you're in Bozeman.
