About Me

ABOUT ME

My friends would say that I'm a pretty well rounded, determined kind of guy. I've been involved in some awesome things in my life because of my energy and drive. I'm into a very large library of music....some may say I'm a walking jukbox. I have a huge heart and appreciation of diversity around me. I've lived in hostel for a year here in Boise some years back as a sociology student and had a blast. I learned a lot from those around the world staying at the hostel.
I mainly do work for festivals and just got hired on to the Coachella Music Festival in Indio, CA in April. I'll be doing my third year as a venue manager for Treefort Music Fest. I also book and promote music at smaller venues in Boise when I'm not traveling for festival work.

PHILOSOPHY

Love

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Before it was to seek out my biological father in Chicago that I haven't met yet but now it's for having some couches to stay on during my travels to and from Festivals starting in April, 2015.

Interests

I love people! I love organizing them towards amazing festivals and events. I'm close to getting my general communication degree with an emphasis in Event Management. I hope to work for a lot festivals while finding a way to find my dad in Chicago and family in Puerto Rico. I love music and enjoy live shows very much. I spend a lot of time with those two main things. I'm an extrovert that hits it off with strangers very fast. I love the outdoors; camping, hiking, biking, fishing, ect.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

How about 2 experiences ;)
When I worked at a Hot Springs Resort (Sol Duc Hotsprings in the Olympic National Forest) I had such an amazing experience. I hiked more than ever in my life, I met some amazing people and I got to see the ocean for the first time off the coast of Washington. I got to check out the San Juan islands and Victoria Canada during that trip. Very great experience.
2nd, I have a picture of Michelle Obama giving me a kiss on the cheek after talking with her.
