About Me

After many years running production for a comedy video company I put my career on pause and I'm traveling for a long while with my delightful girlfriend Mel. I'm an amateur photographer and I'm hoping to walk out of this experience as the best photographer I've ever been. We are both city and walking obsessed and are really looking forward to see new places from the ground looking up.
I'm also happy to be as far away as possible from the Trump administration.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We have been traveling for a number of months and we are realizing that we have not been meeting enough locals. Whats the point of going somewhere if you don't get to meet new people? CS seems like a great way to fix that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

At CollegeHumor I got to make a music video with Weird Al. 8 year old me would have his mind blown by that fact. 30 year old me feels the same way.
