About Me

Spending the summer of 2019 touring North America on my motorcycle to raise awareness for the National Alliance on Mental Illness. I'm going to be exploring, looking to learn about different places and people, and raising awareness about mental health issues.

I used to work in hockey (NHL, AHL, NCAA) and after volunteering internationally for a couple of years I toured Europe on a Suzuki V-Strom. Now I'm making my way around North America on my Harley-Davidson

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because the people are the best part...and experiencing some time talking with local people gives you a better sense of a place.
