Hello! I'm Chase. I'm often described as energetic, caring, fascinated, and adventurous. In the past I've built software for electric vehicles, satellites, Google, and Quizlet. I spend much of my time on adventures, learning, and building.

When I'm not working, I do a variety of things. Here's an example of 2 months of me not working: http://blog.chaselambda.com/2017/11/02/2-month-summary.html

I love Burning Man, group living, sharing stories, and making art.

I pride myself on being flexible and working to make other's lives better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm particularly interested in learning about people and how they live their lives. What routines do they have?
What lessons have they learned that made their lives better? What do they want to do in the future? What is their job like?

I've had many (really) incredible experiences couch surfing in Portland, New York, Berlin, Dresden, Salt Lake City, and Prague.
