CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and serve others!

ABOUT ME

I was born in Texas, went to school, got an Aerospace Engineering degree, moved to Ohio to work on commercial jet engines for General Electric..

But, what I care about more is my service trip to Honduras for 2 months, 5 years ago, and then living in Ecuador for 2 months in 2008, lived in Costa Rica for 3 months in 2009 and then Nica in 2010!! - And all the other volunteer activities that I do after work...

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life serving others, the fortunate must help those less fortunate...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to meet all the great people in Cincinnati, Houston, or anywhere I find myself. The people who I have hosted have been amazing, have not surfed yet, but I know when I do it will be a very positive experience.

I enjoy meeting great people - hopefully those who share a passion for serving others!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted several amazing people - James, Veronica. Great caliber of people! Dreamfirstborn, walking across this continent; George and Yelena, very nice Russians; Rick, driving around the country before China.

Interests

To be honest, I enjoy volunteering and giving back to those who need it most. I am not a partier and I don't drink, but I do get dragged out to house parties every once and a while and end up having a great time.... I am a big reader and HUGE ultimate frisbee fan. Love good music, bright eyes?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to list :)

Teach, Learn, Share

If you take anything from me, that is to take some time away from your life and realize those around us who are less fortunate, stop and give back to others.
