I've spent the past 4 years living on 3 continents and have gained some understanding on inequality, injustice, misaligned incentives. I strive to tackle some of that with my work in my company.

I started in Kenya repairing dirt roads in villages to improve access to hospitals, markets, and schools. I moved back to the US needing a break having become jaded (+ always funding). I now live in Cardiff Wales because it was relatively easier for funding and serve local governments to improve roadworks through better data and analytics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot for work meetings and the conferences and hope to spend my time making more meaningful connections instead of standard "travel" conversations when staying at hostels. I started my own company so a dollar saved is a dollar more of time I can spend making this work.
