Overview
About Me
I am clean and considerate. I like to be careful not to disturb people or their stuff.
I run a company that teaches people about computers. Most of the stuff I need to work on is online, so I can travel and work at the same time. I'm pretty much living my dream. 100% do recommend!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm traveling around to wherever sounds like fun, and couchsurfing is my favorite way to travel.
I'm also happy to host in Seattle, during the brief time I'm actually there.

Music, Movies, and Books
Books:
Yes, please. I need an extra lifetime for reading books. Books I'm reading right now, that I'm totally going to finish all the way before starting whatever else sounds interesting (This is out of date by the time you read it):
The Inevitable - how trends in technology are shaping our future.
Last Words, by George Carlin
Meditations, by Marcus Aurelius
A Sand County Almanac. I avoided this book for years because I hate the name. Turns out it's a great book after all.
I'm halfway through the Foundation series.
Movies:
I like movies with stories, plots, and characters. Although I once watched a movie about a tire, that didn't really have any of those things. It was better than Transformers.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Being a self-aware meatbag made of star dust and dinosaur poop is pretty strange and amazing.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know a lot about computers, electronics, science, and the environment. I like knowing how everything works.
Planning on taking over the world with killer robots? I can help.
I started my own company, and I'm very happy with how it's going. I also started a few companies where I learned a bunch of ways to make a company fail. So I know a little about entrepreneurship, and am always happy to help.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can show you local restaurants, bars, parks, and other attractions, if I have time.
If I have a lot of time, we could take a trip out to the mountains or rain forest (my favorite places in the world!)
