I'm composer and sound designer for visual media and Vr/Ar applications.

I've been a nerd my whole life and even majored in Scandinavian and viking studies in university. (I love Lord of the Rings)
I play guitar, violin, mandolin, and the lute in my video game music group The Travelers VGM.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of well written fantasy novels, nonfiction, and a few webcomics. My greatest literary love is for Icelandic sagas and mythology since that was one of my majors in college. Oscar Wilde also holds a special place in my heart.

My music taste is extremely varied so feel free to ask for my Last.fm account. I usually listen to a blend of dark wave, folk metal, early music, and game OSTs.

I'm not a huge cinephile but I'm always drawn to films and TV shows that feature great writing and eclectic cinematography. X-Files, Firefly, Breaking Bad, Halt and Catch Fire, Parks & Rec, Legend of Korra, Daria, Orphan Black, Penny Dreadful, Star Wars, Supernatural, and Steven Universe are a few of my favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a bunch about music and Scandinavian cultures that I would love to share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you guitar. :)

I'll pay for my use of the utilities and for groceries for myself as well as either paying you a bit for hosting and/or buying you food (or we can come to another arrangement). And I'll bring you gifts! I'm very consciousness of coming into other people's homes and will treat it with respect.

I often quietly keep to myself but I'm also up for hanging out, going out to try new food, chatting, exploring and adventuring!
