I've been able to find a job that lets me work 100% remotely, so now I'm trying to make the most of that! The bit of traveling I have done (Spain, London, Germany, Argentina, and most recently France) has all been through hotels and/or AirBnB, which I've learned is a crappy way to meet locals or to learn about the city! Call me a late bloomer but I'm definitely looking to change how I travel from here on out.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm tired of feeling isolated in hotels or AirBnBs. I want to meet some cool people and get to know more about the places I'm traveling to!

I'm also open to help travelers coming to Chicago to find all of the best spots! I've lived in Chicago most of my life, so I should be able to help you find anything you're looking for!

兴趣

I've been doing web development for the past decade, so there's that. I'm most recently getting into mobile app development and machine learning.

Besides that, I'm super interested in studying human behavior/psychology, entrepreneurship (I ran a startup for a few years with a friend), and helping people achieve their goals.

音乐、电影和书籍

I mostly listen to rock, electronic, hip-hop/rap but I'm pretty open to most music -- especially if it's live.

Movies I like off the top of my head: Fight Club, American Beauty, Toy Story, Total Recall, Old Boy, Raging Bull...

Books I'm currently reading: The October Country & The 4 Hour Workweek

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Built my first startup that was used by Starbucks baristas in the midwest. We heard a story from one user from Hawaii who used our site to keep working while he visited his brother in Chicago. So great!

教，学，和分享

I can probably teach you a few things about technology, I'd love to hear about what makes people tick, learn about people's passions. I'm decent at cooking but I wouldn't say I have any specialty dishes that I make. We can share some laughs!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Good conversation, whether it's light or heavy. I'm pretty easy going. Always happy to crack open some beers or a bottle of wine with people! I wish I had a special talent like playing a musical instrument or something but maybe one day...
