I am a Master's Student trying to fit Deep Neural Nets into my research theme, which is segmenting neurons in calcium fluorescence images.

Other than that, I am just greatful to be experiencing life and all it has to offer meeting each day with love and compassion as best as a can while I await my next adventure.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of affordable travel that shies away from the traditional touristy experience. I like to share in the experience of people and not just places when going somewhere new.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to read literature by Africans and the black diaspora.

I am not so much of a movie person but I prefer alternate indie films and documentaries.

Different types of tunes for different types of moods. Kaytranada's "If" is my jam and so is "Stimela" by Hugh Masekela. I also like Chance The Rapper, Kendrick Lamar, Tracey Chapman, Joan Armatrading, Tom Misch

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungeeee

I learned to ride a motorbike the day before I left for a 2 day motorbike tour through the mountains of Vietnam.

I like challenging overnight hikes. I walked over 50km in two days once with a heavy pack (had to carry bedding, food and water). It was crazy.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can guide you through a yoga flow you can share a funny story with me
