About Me

Traveling the country like a crazy, earth-loving, web designing hippie!
I'm shoeless more than not. I'm a lover of coffee, beers, cars, cycling, uncling, skiing, eating healthy (pescatarian), meeting people, embracing them with the intensity of a thousand suns, and traveling.
I don't smoke cigarettes.

List of people I've been told I look like: Ashton Kutcher, Jesus, Abe Lincoln (when I had a long beard), Tarzan (the animated one), Matthew McConaughey, Eric Church.

I've owned and run a web and graphic design company since 2008, have recently closed the storefront and am excited to take it on the road with me as I visit cities/places that I've always wanted to visit. I don't smell bad (most times), I'm clean/organized, I have a great credit score, pretty straight teeth, love dogs, and am looking forward to your couch and company.

I'm just out here spreading positive vibes and smiles, love meeting beautiful humans from different backgrounds, reveling in the real important things in life, and sharing experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been pulled over for speeding twice in 8 minutes. And didn't get a ticket.
Traveled dozens of miles of the White Rim Trail in Moab, UT for an entire gorgeous day in a gnarly, topless Rubicon filled with good friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could teach you about web design and coffee, would love to learn about pretty much anything, and share good vibes, laughs, and drinks (alcoholic, caffeinated, or otherwise)

What I Can Share with Hosts

High fives, hugs, laughter, I can cook somewhat decently (not really, but I have patience and love to try), I can fix cars and computers sometimes, and make you some stellar coffee.
