I'm an often-adventurer from Tulsa OK, and having been interning at NASA Jet Propulsion Lab since 2015. My main passions outside of work are traveling, bouldering, sport-climbing and hiking. People have often told me I'm an easy going guy, and I love to connect with other adventurous and quirky people. I'm usually on the lookout for another fun adventure!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm looking to meet cool local people in the greater LA area who would like to share their California experiences with a little ole Midwesterner like myself. Ultimately, it would be wonderful to meet other fellow adventurers and build a greater network in this new wonderful place. Also, I'm trying to save some money while transitioning to a new career. Not surprisingly, interns don't get paid much!
