About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm a social justice activist committed to improving the immediate communities I live in (in turn affecting the planet).

ABOUT ME

I've been active in anti-capitalist, anti-police brutality, pro-worker, and pro-migrant groups in the Phoenix area.

PHILOSOPHY

Do onto others as you would want done onto you. I treat everyone I meet with respect, and expect the same in return.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've used CS in the past to find places to stay and am now looking to open my place up to others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've stayed on many a couches during my time from San Francisco, Seattle, Washington D.C., Boston, Denver, Los Angeles, and Chicago. The only thing I need is either a long enough couch (I'm 5'8") or a carpeted floor. I'm also a light sleeper, and enjoy pets (I'm not allergic).

Interests

I'm interested in a lot of things from gardening, reading, communicating/making new contacts, protesting, traveling, writing, watching films/tv, going to concerts, surfing the web, researching, social justice, planning events, and eating great food.
