Hey! (: My name is Matthew, but my friends call me biggi!

I am 3 years out of university and have a love for all things tech. Since graduating, I have put that passion into practice by working as a Digital Consultant in Chicago.

But for the past 9 months I decided to make a radical change and travel outside the U.S. to learn from other peoples and cultures from around the world!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

To see a different side of the places I visit and meet the amazing people that live there! I hope we can learn from each other's perspectives and have some fun too (:

Algo increíble que he hecho

One year in school I organized a canned food drive that brought in over 110,000 canned goods for local food pantries! Seeing the 1,000+ students come together around this cause is still one of the most awe-inspiring moments of my life.
