Born and raised in Knoxville, Tennessee. I just graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and a minor in Industrial Design from Georgia Tech in Atlanta, Georgia. After motorbiking through Vietnam and visiting family in China for 2 months, I moved to Milwaukee to begin work.

I love to cook and eat all kinds of foods (especially spicy food!). I love soccer, working out, mountain biking, basketball, football, basically any sport I love to play and watch. I also enjoy building stuff, if you've got any DIY projects you need help with/something I'm all yours!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and traveling, and there's no better source of advice on travel than locals. I want to get a true experience of visiting a city and CS provides the link to the local advice as well as a bed to crash on.

I've never used CS before but am looking forward to my first time

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've broken my femur, collarbone, ankle, and torn my labrum in my shoulder. I've also motorbiked all the way from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi (and only crashed once...) and somehow I'm still alive and walking!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have tons of stories to tell as well, and I'd love to learn how people outside of my home live. I love to cook as well and I'd love to learn and share more about food.

This might be boring, but if you're interested in learning how to code in Matlab I'm your guy. I also really enjoy woodwork, if you have some power tools and wood I can fix/build you something for your house.

I'm still working on my Chinese. My French is very very basic. I'd love to improve on both and one day be tri-lingual

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook and hopefully make you laugh as well. If you've got a violin sitting around I'll do my best to recreate a recital piece from when I was young.
