CURRENT MISSION

My life mission is to help people "talk with intent." I care deeply about communication, connection, learning, and new experiences. That's why couchsurfing is perfect for me.

ABOUT ME

I like to live life, seek out new experiences and interesting people. I like to push people's buttons to see how they respond. I enjoy turning mundane life into games and making goofy bets. Conversations, coffee, and the outdoors make me smile. I love my friends and family and feel happy that I've discovered the secret to life.

PHILOSOPHY

1. Talk With Intent. Spark The Discussion.
2. You can have all the money and knowledge in the world, but if you have no one to share it with you have nothing.
3. Whether you think you "can" or you "can't," you're right.
4. Buy The Ticket. Take The Ride.
5. Never stop learning...

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most types of music; I listen to a little bit of everything. I find music to match my mood. I love watching and talking during movies. For me, movies are a conversation to be entered into, an active product to be explored with others rather than a passive entertainment experience. My favorite authors are Kurt Vonnegut, Hunter Thompson, and Nietzsche.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everyday in the sun is an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share: knowledge of the relationship between communication and conflict, how to positively lead others, and the ins-and-outs of St. Louis, MO
Learn: as long as I expand my mind with any new info, I'm cool with it.
