About Me

CURRENT MISSION

photograph the US as i ride my bike across it.

ABOUT ME

I am goofy as all hell. Quite outgoing, in a really socially awkward sort of way.
I like to make people laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is such a beautiful place. I'm not gonna lie, sometimes...actually a lot of times, I fail to see that. But it is the people I have met, sometimes in brief passing, sometimes in an intense connection, that continue to affirm this idea. Chances are, no matter how bad a day can get, I will come across something that strikes me in a way and moves me enough to see beyond dwelling on the absolute shit that can bombard you day in and day out in a city like New York. Usually it is some form of human interaction, direct or indirect, commonplace or absolutely magical...and suddenly things get put into perspective. Try to find at least one moment like that per day and I think you'll feel pretty fulfilled. I hope that through Couch Surfing, I can encourage more of these experiences to enter my life and share them with others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really really really really would love to be able to make the Couch Surfing experiences I have, into a photo thesis project. So anyone who doesn't have any qualms about having their portrait taken, PLEASE come stay with me! And even if you don't want your photo taken, come and stay anyway!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've always been a laid back traveler. Meaning if you have some space on the floor or your couch, I'll gladly crash there if there is an adventure to be had. When I found out about Couch Surfing as a network, I had found a blessing.

Interests

Art in general. The wall-eyed and crazy. Bikes and fancy beers, but not because of where I live. I like color a whole lot.
