I was born and raised in Northeast Ohio. The rest is history.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love many types of music. I love to share my musical interests with other and I'm always looking to discover music that is new to me. My all time favorite band is Jefferson Airplane and my favorite artist is Stevie Wonder. Some over favorites are Nilsson, Stone The Crows, Spirit, Morning Dew, Rotary Connection, The The, Iron Butterfly, Stanley Turrentine, Phoebe Snow, Quilt, Roy Ayers, Janis Ian, Willie Wright, String Driven Thing, Art Blakey, Al Kooper, Curtis Mayfield, Labi Siffre, Tim Maia, Jorge Ben, Michael Kiwanuka, Marvin Gaye, Julie Driscoll, Marcy Playground, Buffalo Springfield, Freddie Hubbard, Otis Redding, Tears for Fears, and Ten Years After.

Two of my favorite movies are 'Network' and 'Jackie Brown'

I mostly read nonfiction, but I'm trying to read more novels and short stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Couchsurfed

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm sure that if we spend at least an hour or two together we will teach each other something (whether it be minuscule or life changing). I am open-minded and always looking to challenge my personal views and to be introduced to new perspectives.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to meet new people and am working on expanding my culinary skills. I try to cook for hosts when I stay or help out in some way.
