Overview
About Me
NOTE: i will not accept CS'ers during major festival weekends such as ACL and SXSW. And 2 nights is pretty much max.
Aloha!
I am born and raised in Austin, but have spent most of my life on the road. I play professional golf from 2005 through 2012, I traveled upwards of 40 weeks per year. I don't travel nearly as much as I used to but I still get out fairly often because I do a bit of work in the music world as a tour manager. Of course there's just a good old-fashioned vacation once in a while (a lot!).
I currently run a vacation rental management business in Austin, among other things. I also tour manage Monte Montgomery (amazing guitar player) and do some touring work for NOFX about 4-6 times a year.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to throw a knot in a string with one hand. Pretty handy stuff to know if someone ever asks you "what's the most useless thing you know how to do?"
What I Can Share with Hosts
Lots of stories from life on the road, whether it was touring playing professional golf, or managing the NOFX book release tour or spending summers in southern India as a kid.
I always do my best to find the best coffee I can possibly get my hands on. I love bringing gifts!
