College student entering my third year at Michigan State University. I have a passion for research and travel and both at the same time if I'm lucky. Mostly I think there's a lot to this world that either needs to be explored or learned so I decided to both with my life. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I model my life after the movie "Wolf of Wall Street" except in academics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One of my biggest pet peeves is looking like a tourist. The best way to get around that is to immerse yourself in the culture you're in. What's a better way than bumming with a stranger? Or the sophisticated answer of wanting cultural immersion, while meeting fascinating people from around the world who can share their unique experiences.

Interests

Research, Music, Technology, Travel (duh), Social Equality, Science, Culture, Ultimate Frisbee, Philosophy, Neuroscience, Psychology, Living up to Frat boy stereotypes, Pharmacology, #Life, etc.

Current Mission: I plan on doing a TEDx Talk about the faces of couch surfing. So if you host me you might be in a TEDx Talk!

Flew sky high on a helicopter to Fox Glacier. Also going fishing at 8am New Year's day...

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an optimistic cynic. I can tell you how bad the TSA is at really doing their job. The cheapest liquor, beer, or wine that won't kill you. "You can't know the true joys of life unless you've been to the depths of hell". My philosophy of life and on humans. I have a pretty unique perspective because I study what makes us, well human. At least in my opinion..

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer a diverse background and infinite knowledge of the brain. Okay not really infinite, but I know a decent amount and can tell you some pretty cool things.
