Been entrepreneuring for now around a decade. After my first semi-successful company thought myself a badass. Life quickly checked my ego as I tried to build my second company forcing me to realize that I was incredibly lucky with my first project. After two years of that, founded a surgical video journal (jomi.com) which has been fascinating over the last few years.

Occasionally I like to busk on a trombone. Nothing like a child locking its eyes on the instrument in disbelief as it bellows a mating call to a passing fire truck. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Enjoy meeting new people, sharing experiences.

Interests

I'm interested in building things, implementing ideas, experimenting. A big fan of "doing" over "overthinking". Occasionally I like to climb (bouldering). Can improv on piano half-decently (so long as it's C minor blues... offer no guarantees otherwise).

• bouldering
