About Me

Hey world! I cleaned out my childhood room recently and found a note written by 8 year old me, upon learning about New Year's resolutions, to "plant more seeds." I think I've held true to that over the years -- I spent the past 2.5 years living in Nicaragua running operations for a small solar company and spent my free time running in the mountains.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hear it's the best way to meet people in a new place and hope to host one day soon!

Interests

I love offshore sailing and recently started kite surfing. I miss speaking Spanish every day and running out my front door and up into the mountains. Solar energy is the people's revolution :)

When I'm feeling lazy, I'll throw some spices at some lentils for a quick curry.
