About Me

Life has been interesting.

NYC --> Houston --> Seattle --> Taipei --> Bangalore ---> Berlin (I'm going to be here for while)

I currently live in north Berlin with my wife and son (born Nov. 21, 2021).

Professionally, I split my time between teaching English (often as a dialect coach for European singers nailing down their American accents) and teaching combat sports like boxing, kickboxing, wrestling, and Jiu Jitsu.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

As much as I like rocks, monuments, and museums, meeting people truly fills me with joy. Let me know if I can bring you anything from Germany!
