CURRENT MISSION

I'm helping people have a friendlier relationship with death and dying, while developing my intuition.

ABOUT ME

I have strong passions, and I especially love design. I strive to empower human beings who feel disempowered by their experience of pain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am good for a nice talk at a cafe, and can provide information or a tour of San Francisco. I love to help and answer questions!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've made some fantastic friends through surfing and group events, it humbles me. The result of using CS is I just want to travel and couchsurf more, in the spirit of reconnecting with those people and making more amazing connections

Interests

I thrive on new friends. I'm also into running and cycling -- great ways to learn a new city! I'm into behavioral and social science and have lately been really into talking about (dis)Connectedness and technology+sustainability.

I'm into interactive art, meditation, yoga, martial arts, food (cooking and eating), and red wines.
