ABOUT ME

I'm an anthropologist who studies human-computer interaction. I observe the way users interact with products in order to then...make better products :) I also work in the world of international development, and consult on the transparency of foreign governments. I love what I do! Otherwise, I'm a native of the San Francisco Bay Area and am a diehard California fan.

PHILOSOPHY

There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had nothing short of amazing experiences with CouchSurfers. I remain friends with surfers to this day, and keep in touch with my hosts. From Brazil, to South Korea, Japan, and Indonesia, the community here has proved to be a wonderful one.
