I'm a Chicano living in the SF bay area. Iam very passionate about empowering young students of color to pursue careers in the STEM fields. I love to ride my bike and work with like minded people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Too meet awesome people and learn something new from you. (Yes you!)

Interests

I am a bicycle enthusiasts. I have built my own bike and frequently build them in my spare time. I love anything having to do with bike culture. I also really enjoy trying new beers. A perfect day is comprised of riding my bike around the city stoping at park, read whatever i am reading at the moment, then making my way to my favorite bar.

I rode my (single speed) Bicycle from San Fransisco to Los angels. One of most incredible experiences Ive ever had, Big Sur, San Luis Obispo, Monterrey all are gorgeous on a bicycle.
