About Me

Grew up in the Philadelphia area riding BMX bikes and trying to be a good kid.

Went to college in Rochester and then rode a bicycle across the country.

Relocated to Denver for grad school and spent my free time getting out into the mountains.

Moved to Memphis for my first career job. Bought a house, got a couple dogs, made some good friends, and enjoyed living in a new part of the country.

Now I'm in Salt Lake City for the mountains, climate, and a new job. Ready to start this new chapter 🙃

Hoping to meet travelers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm willing to put up anyone who would be willing to do the same for me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've relaxed in a homemade sauna inside an old grain silo, communicated with Chimps using sign language and discussed space flight with retired rocket scientists. Most of all, I experienced new places through the amazing eyes of locals who accepted me into their home.

I have not had the opportunity to host yet but I hope to offer my home very soon and provide for others as they provided for me.

Teach, Learn, Share

There's a lot more that I don't know than I do but go ahead, ask away.

I have a guest room where you'll have a queen bed and some privacy. We'll share a bathroom and the rest of the house.
