Software geek who enjoys craft beer, cheap beer, good wine, live music, and pretty much anything that is creative.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've had some good experiences with couchsurfers from both my account and roommates/friends, so I thought I'd offer up my (and my gf's) extra room in case anyone wants to explore this side of mke.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sea cave kayaking/bioluminescent plankton at night in southern thailand still makes me smile.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like talking with people about photography, light, art, sharing my fifteen years (on-and-off) of experience.

It takes longer than a day but I've almost taught a couple people how to play guitar (you have to get past the oh-god-my-fingers-hurt days).

I would like to learn how to be a better storyteller
