Hello, my name is Jake and I'm a student at Minerva. Minerva is a new university that has had me living in a new city every four months. So far, I've lived in San Francisco, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Seoul, Dallas, and Hyderabad, with London next. I've worked in the studios of film composers in Hollywood, with blockchain developers in Korea, and as a data scientist in Texas.

I've used CouchSurfing many times in LA, Paris, and Argentina, but always with a friend's account.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To meet new locals as I travel the world, and provide alternatives to the more formal living situations that I've found incentivize NOT leaving your place of residence.

Intereses

I've tried to find professional work experience in the development of my hobbies. This started as playing my trombone on the street, and led to me working in the Hollywood studio of the film composer who scored An Inconvenient Truth, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. This helped me work as a Product Developer for a Blockchain company in Seoul, which led me to a role as a machine learning analyst for a company in Dallas.
