Overview
About Me
Lifelong musician turned tech enthusiast. Passionate about technology, travel, learning/experiencing new cultures and music (of course).
After graduating from UGA, I eventually joined a tech start up called Algolia set on redefining how people think about search technology. I'm open to most things and a big fun of making people and learning through experience.
As a perpetually curious person, I'm always looking to connect with new people. Overall, I'm a laid-back, open minded guy
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Nowadays, I travel around Europe the US quite a bit as my job has given me time to visit my colleagues in our offices in Paris, ATL and SF.
As a result, I spend about ~5-6 months away from Atlanta and I would much prefer to connect with locals and experience new cultures/cities from your point of view in my free time

Music, Movies, and Books
My favorites are always evolving and changing so this is a tricky question!
I am getting a kick out of this book though - I'm amazing by the sheer amount of research that went into it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Well every week in the Fall during university I would regularly play some trumpet in front of 93 thousand people so that was pretty neat.
I've also been collaborating with some awesome teams like Soundcloud, CBS Sports and Scholastic since I joined my new company.
I'm sure I could list a couple awesome travel stories here - but these are tales seem best told in person no?
Teach, Learn, Share
Always up for bringing out my inner nerd 🤓 some stuff I'm up to share -
