I'm a psychologist and nature nerd who loves getting to know new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I strongly value the power of community. I believe that opening hearts and homes is so important to the future of our society. I love showing others around the beautiful Bay Area, and I am excited to stay with others when I’m traveling to their cities.

I’m queer, Jewish, and atheist. I respect people of all cultures and religions and am always happy to answer questions as long as they are respectful as well! My home is a safe haven for LGBT people. If you are transphobic, homophobic, racist, or anti-Semitic, Please don’t host me or ask to stay at my place.

Oh, and I have a kitty! His name is Journey and he’s a fluffy little baby.
