I’m a musician, music teacher, choir director, and best friend! I love deep convos, songwriting, yoga and tai chi, dancing, reading, and exploring cities and nature. I’ve had a big year of transformation: I started a choir, which has been very gratifying and fun. And I also started a Buddhist meditation group, which I love leading. I’ve been a private music teacher for a long time (20 years!) and I’m starting to step into more director roles. An exciting challenge.

I’m traveling this fall to explore the south, and get out of my Cali bubble. I really want to hear some live gospel, jazz, folk, anything that crosses my path. I want to meet new people, get lost places, and find new things.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I want to connect with people in the cities I visit. I love getting to know new folks and exploring first hand recommendations. I also love staying in people's homes, and find it much more personal than hotels. Sharing economy <3

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

This year I hosted 4 house concerts at the beautiful house I rent in LA with 3 friends. They were an excellent way for me to develop some material, and feature some incredible musicians in my community along the way. SO FUN.

I love to play music for a good old fashioned sing-along. And I can help you with your guitar, piano, or singing skills! I also love to cook for hosts or take you out (:
