CURRENT MISSION

Laugh with people from as many places as possible

ABOUT ME

I work in public radio and I am a stand up comedian. I like visiting places and seeing things. I want to make more friends from more places and have fun and lighthearted adventures and conversations.

I have a website too if I've done a bad job describing myself here

Cheers. Let's be friends, yeah?

PHILOSOPHY

I live for laughing. I just want to

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently trying to travel to different places to see/experience/feel them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I first started comedy I lived about 20 miles from my work and most shows. So I started crashing on people's couches. Anyone who would let me.

The relationships I developed out of the sweet and innocent experience of just staying in someone's home, the morning coffee conversations, the intimacy I felt...I live to feel that with people. I want us all to be connected, because we all desire to be and are just shy about it.

Interests

Comedy. Music. Public radio. Food. Dancing. Singing. Painting. Being generally pretty care free.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Indie rock, folk, soul. You name it, I'll find a way to dance to it.

Movies: I'm not a huge movie person, but sit me down and I'll probably enjoy almost anything (except horror. no horror please)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen Steve Martin perform live before and it changed my life.

I feel like I should have a more interesting answer here but that was what was in my heart when I saw the question.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a shockingly encyclopedic knowledge of comedy. I also know probably too much about public radio. I am also a licensed (in CA) Esthetician so I can teach you all about skincare.

I want to learn how to play my ukelele.
