About Me

I'm a moonlighting game developer. I love creating real time vfx and designing characters. I also love to draw, read, play video games, hike, and other random adventures. I love blues dancing and ninja warrior obstacle courses. I'm also interested in power lifting and other fitness activities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm extroverted and I like to meet new people. I never know where my next adventure will take me. There may be times when I won't be able to afford a hotel to stay and just need a couch to crash on from anything to a job interview to a professional conference. Eventually, when I own my own place, I'd like to return the helping hand I've found.

Interests

Video games and game development are two strong interests of mine. It's not just my career but my calling in life. Subsequently, arts and technology are also huge interests of mine. Naturally, a strong interest and love for tabletop rpgs and board games is an extension of that.

I'm more likely to watch videos on educational stuff then I am to watch super funny videos. I like those I just prefer a well written video essay like kaptainkristian. I also like to involve myself with men's work like what the Mankind Project does.

Music, Movies, and Books

Bojack Horseman is one of my favorite shows. It's so human and real. And then it's also hilarious and sad. There are few shows like it in the world. I also like Brandon Sanderson as an author for Science Fiction and Fantasy books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My team won the "Most Likely to Succeed as a Commercial Project" award at the 2016 Utah Indie Game Jam. That was super cool. I did some art for it.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching people how to draw. I think everyone can do it and should do it. It's a wonderful creative exercise.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll always do my part to clean up and help to contribute to cooking.
