After living 24 years of my life in Los Angeles, I moved to West Oakland! Moving to the bay has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I am currently a chocolatier for a vegan/organic chocolate company here in Oakland. Our kitchen it quite tiny but our company is growing! Also, I have a lovely pup named Tai. He just hit a year old and is a chow/poodle mix.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After many friends of mine spoke so highly about Couchsurfing I decided to give it a shot. First, mostly to find a place to crash during my transition into the bay but after that didn't go as planned I put a pause on using couchsurfing. It wasn't until recently that I tried again and was able to stay with an amazing host that put my belief back in this platform.

Interests

I love live music and discovering new artists and songs, enjoy camping and outdoor activities, slowly mastering my cooking skills.
