I moved from my small home town of Sequim Washington in 2002. My first few years were spent working and completing my AA degree at SCCC. Shortly after I graduated, I quit all my jobs and moved into the Belltown neighborhood of Seattle to gain broader experience of the city life. I very quickly met a horde of artists and was inspired by the Seattle Art & Entertainment culture. By 2007 was planning the launch of my own company, "Active Entertainment," in an effort to contribute to its growth.

In 2008, Active Entertainment was launched with the inaugural "AMDEF Exposition," an annual event dedicated to bringing together the communities of Art, Music, Dance, Entertainment and Fashion. Almost 2 years later, we launched "Chance Fashion," which has now become the longest running monthly fashion event in the country.

My life in general is committed to furthering the growth of the Art & Entertainment Culture through Active Entertainment, AMDEF, Chance Fashion, and other events. Feel free to find me on FB at www.facebook.com/ActiveEntertainment, or check out our events at www.ChanceFashion.org, www.facebook.com/SeattleEntertainment, or www.facebook.com/SeattleAMDEF

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

- I like meeting new people.
- I have a thorough familiarity with the Seattle nightlife scene and love to advocate my local Artists / Promoters / Event Producers.
- I may travel in the future to produce or do research on events in other cities, most immediately Portland and San Francisco, and would love to have places to crash.

Interessen

Aside from building my business and events, my down time is spent pretty mellow. I like to attend events, cook with friends, shoot pool at dive bars, and spend time in the sunshine during the brief Seattle summers.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I suppose gangster rap and/or independent hip hop would be my "favorite," (anything before like... 2002 generally. Not a fan of club-hop) but it depends on the mood I'm in. Sometimes I'm partial to Sade, Lauren Hill, Ben Harper, Erika Badu, or Dido. Sometimes I prefer Tool, Daft Punk, Rage against the Machine, or even classic rock. I like all sorts of music, and spend a lot of time listening to my locals.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I once rescued a kitten from a crashing helicopter using nothing but a thumb tack and cellophane.
