I attempt to involve myself in new and exciting experiences whenever possible. I'm big into concerts/festivals, film, records (I collect them, work at a record store and sell on Ebay). I act in independent films and make music as often as possible. I also have a degree in graphic design.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a month in Bangladesh visiting my brother who works there as a nurse. Tons of incredible experiences happened, and I could talk for hours about it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the basics of almost any musical instrument, how to make aesthetically pleasing graphic design work.

I'd love to learn how to prepare specific types of food.

One of my favorite things to do in life is to share my love of music with others and turn people on to new artists that they will love.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Great conversation, a positive attitude, good music.

Countries I’ve Visited

Bangladesh, Italy, Mexico, United Arab Emirates
