CURRENT MISSION

To make art collaboratively, support community resilience, pay attention to where I am and appreciate the beauty/wonder of the everyday

ABOUT ME

I am a socially inclined introvert, a thinker/reader/talker but also someone drawn to movement and experience. I am queer and love being in and creating queer spaces. I grew up on a commune and have lived in communal cooperative settings a lot as an adult. I am a super good cook and always happy to contribute in that way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been an unofficial couch surfer my whole life, but just joined the site. It's rare that I do to places where I don't already know people, but I like the idea of expanding the network of where I go and how I make connections. I host people often in my home, friends and friends of friends.
