About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Complete my M.S. in Range Science and get as much out of it as possible.

ABOUT ME

I love to laugh. I'm in for the journey and I like to live in the present moment, being aware of my surroundings and appreciating little things.

I was raised in a small suburban town in Florida. It used to have beautiful pastures and wilderness all around it. Now most of it has been turned into ugly shopping malls and concrete parking lots. Watching the excessive development pushed me into conservation work, trying to find a happy medium between using our natural resources and maintaining quality of life.

PHILOSOPHY

I love telling stories, if I want to tell great stories, I have to have great adventures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy hosting and going to events. I like to meet new people from around the world and exchange experiences.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed, hosted, and gone to a few events.

Interests

I have recently taken up salsa dancing and I love it. I think it's a great way to go out and connect with people. Apart from that, I am big into what is called agroecology, figuring out how to farm in ways that mimic the natural environment. It crosses over with things like permaculture. I generally nerd out about farming and ways to farm better. In fact, it's pushed me to get a master's degree in Range Science. The rest of my interests include running, lifting, fishing, mechanical things (motorcycles, cars etc.) and watching stand up comedy.
