I love to meet community organizers, local artists and artists in transit. Art is the practice of doing what makes your heart sing (writing, painting, poetry, music, cooking, sharing culture, travelling, exploring nature, dancing, etc.); everything in life is a creative practice.

Dietary preference: primarily vegetarian (open to trying new cuisines)

Yogi + Imaging Scientist + Artist
I'm a trained engineer, vision scientist, and computer vision programmer. I left the traditional tech/engineering world to dive into intensive yoga study and creative expression.
I facilitate Vocal Yoga classes and experiences. Vocal Yoga combines voice science and yoga as a tool for internal sound healing. I work with creatives, performers, teachers, and curious minds. Personally, this practice has helped me alleviate debilitating migraines!
My creative expression involves singing, improv jam sessions with the homies, painting, and playing with color!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a Los Angeles native so I am used to being surrounded by colorful cultures and languages. I currently live in upstate NY and want to continue exposing myself to the colorful people, places, things of the world. There's always some curiosity to explore in life. Mamma Earth has so much to offer—why not see it all?
