CURRENT MISSION

Launch my children into the world successfully

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to help people and get to meet new people and try new things. But I'm an introvert, so I can't really explain the contradiction there.

Interests

My kids, my cat, my work, donating platelets, climbing state high points, understanding people better, practicing mindful selflessness, learning better how to help people.

• cats
• rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Some favorites are Apollo 13, Chariots of Fire, Mozart. (Why don't they ask about art? I've always liked Velazquez.)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam with manta rays with my daughter in Hawaii. They are incredible creatures. Probably the best experience in my life.
