Description

Originally from Maryland, USA, I’m an architectural lighting designer currently based in Colombia, where I’ve been living since 2021. Over the years, I’ve spent extended time in various countries teaching English, volunteering, backpacking, and working remotely.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Social Sciences with a minor in Environmental Management, along with certifications in computer-aided design, lighting design, and English teaching.

Alongside my professional work, I enjoy contributing to community-focused and environmental initiatives. While in Colombia, I organized a donation drive supporting flood victims in the Córdoba region and have participated in Digital Nomad Barrio cleanups.

I’m especially interested in projects related to sustainability, eco-building, permaculture, landscaping, and community development. I enjoy working outdoors, staying active, and being part of something meaningful. I’m reliable, easygoing, and comfortable working both independently and as part of a team.

I work remotely with a flexible schedule and am happy to contribute around 4–6 hours per day. My current visa in Colombia expires August 21 and I am considering moving to another country in the Americas.

LuangMai has a beautiful environment to learn about the ways of Theravāda Buddhism- it's practice, history, and cultural significance. Waking up to meditate with the nuns before sunrise every morning was a serene experience. Collecting alms with them afterwards provided great insight into the understanding of an ordained Buddhist's importance to … read more

Pantila and the rest of the staff have a terrific place of respite from the outside world. There is a relaxing atmosphere, a quite manageable workload, and a genuine feeling of warmth throughout the grounds. Along with the great staff, we had a convergence of volunteers of diverse origins- all of whom I hope to stay in touch with. It was fun … read more

Mark is a really relaxed and warm guy with a good atmosphere at both his hostel and English school. He opened the house up to me as a place to stay for a few days because I had an issue with one of the dogs at my first host's. Thanks Mark!
