Hi!

I'm a 25 year-old guy from the Midwestern United States. I studied business in school and graduated in May of 2016. Since then, I've started a longboard company with my siblings (BlackCraft Boards), toured the continental US with the 2 bands I actively play in (The Wise Man's Fear and Whale Bones), and have started a career in video editing and YouTube management/SEO (Lexicon Media).

I love meeting new people and experiencing new places and things!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I used couchsurfing to find places to stay for a 5-week European solo trip in fall of 2017 and it was a life-changing and truly positive experience. I'm on this site now because I want to pay it forward by hosting, and I cannot imagine a better way to meet genuine, interesting people that are local to their environment or travelers with experience to share.

The couchsurfing community really is special and I'm so glad I found out about it!
