I'm a young adventurous spirit looking to explore the world and help others along the way. I want to use my creative abilities to inspire people to express themselves and be true to themselves and everyone around them.

I like to surf, skate, hike, camp, play music, paint, draw, design, photograph, create videos, and most importantly - I like to try new things. I love meeting new people and sharing experiences with friendly humans.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couchsurfing because my goal is to travel and learn from the world just as much as it is my goal to teach and inspire people with my energy and happiness.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've started an art collective called Nomadic Artifacts. We are working together to promote the gifting or giftivism philosophy. We do this by creating and selling art to help support positive social change projects, stimulate local economies, and inspire people by sharing our passions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach several forms of art including acrylic painting, water coloring, charcoal drawing, pen and pencil drawing, and much more on the digital side. I am trained and versed in Adobe softwares such as Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Lightroom, and Premiere. I have experience with book design and book binding. My expertise is photography, videography, and design. I'm also able to share some of my guitar and music knowledge!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share my art and music on a more light hearted note, but my expertise is in photography, videography, graphic design, web design, digital and social media, print, and advertising/marketing.

I am happy to help with any physical labor projects/chores. I have experience working on construction jobs and know how to use tools and some machinery.
