About Me

CURRENT MISSION
To share joy, peace, knowledge and insight with as many human beings as I can!

ABOUT ME
I’m an artist, illustrator, and animated filmmaker. During the day, I'm an executive at a children's television network. I'm socially and politically active, and committed to justice and liberation for all people.

In my free time, I love to workout, draw, read, and discover new, creative endeavors. I love comic books, anime, manga, art, storytelling and creativity in general!

PHILOSOPHY
You never know what the future holds, but be a force of good, kindness and positivity in the world and it will bring great things!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've surfed, hosted and attended events with members locally. I'm energized by the connections I've made and have become friends with everyone I've hosted. I welcome any chance to reach out and connect to the CS community!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have surfed and hosted many times and I’ve never had a bad experience! I love the network of friends I’ve found across the world!

Interests

When traveling I love perusing bookstores and art galleries to understand the artistic culture of wherever I'm visiting.
I love fashion and putting together looks. Costuming and cosplay give me a thrill!
And I can't pass through a city without a night out dancing at least once!

Music, Movies, and Books

Musically, I love everything, but recently I've been excited by Kaytranada, Tems, Glass Animals, Victoria Monet, Geographer and Charli XCX.
I love movies that are epic, high-concept, ground-breaking visual experiences with unexpected storytelling.
My book interests generally are books on history, justice and liberation movements, and high-concept speculative fiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I shared a meal as the only guest with a group of monks in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Maybe a small thing to some, but far beyond any experience I ever thought I would have had.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a figure artist, and I love sharing my artwork with people. I'm happy to give drawing tips and love to have people pose for artwork!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to draw the human figure and portraits, so I offer a hand-drawn, original portrait for anyone who might come to visit!

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Belgium, Cambodia, Canada, Chile, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Iceland, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Laos, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, Portugal, Qatar, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, Viet Nam
