I'm a fun-loving, outdoorsy, outgoing geek. I did the Computer Science thing and then moved to SF to build fun things.

Outside of work, I hike, bike, camp, bake, and just hang out with friends. I'm known to be smart, creative, supportive, funny, and very huggy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Happy to help SF visitors, and meet cool people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Early guy at Box - founder of their developer program.

Biked 100+ miles on a mountain bike.

Break-danced in front of a mob of 3000 political protesters. I supported the other side, so I didn't get cheered.

Helped set up and manage a popular Burning Man theme camp. Don't worry, I don't preach about Burning Man, but I have fun stories upon request!

Teach, Learn, Share

I actually teach Product Management classes and advise many startups on execution.

However, outside of business people seem very interested in my random knowledge of psychology and philosophy, especially when combine science and politics (nothing like Neil DeGrasse Tyson, in my opinion).

What I Can Share with Hosts

- Great views from the top of the hill.

- Tips on restaurants, bars, parks, and hiking.
