About Me

I'm completely new to Couchsurfing! Well hello there, new adventures!

I've lived in Austin since '97 - I've also lived in L.A. and New York City. I LOVE to travel, go camping and get into nature. I like live music, theater, comedy shows, art exhibits, backyard BBQs, and house parties, among other things.

What I’m doing with my life: I run my own Home Staging/Professional Organizing/Interior Redesign business, I practice yoga when I can, I work on improving my house, and creative projects like making jewelry and building stuff.

I'm a do-er and a maker. For money, I stage homes for sale, organize people's stuff, and do interior redesign. For fun, I make artisan jewelry, I paint, I sew, and I build stuff. Yep, I'm pretty good with power tools. I'm not really into team sports but I like hiking, swimming and Yoga.

I’m pretty good at:
- managing expectations and being clear about what I want and what I need
- listening
- mixing with a wide variety of people
- singing
- making stuff pretty & making pretty stuff

Food: I love Italian, Indian, Thai, Mexican, French, Sushi, homemade juices and smoothies, and berries of all kinds! I try to limit the red meat, but damn it all, sometimes I just have to have a P.Terry's cheeseburger.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movie Faves: The Fall, American Beauty, the Big Lebowski, anything directed by Terry Gilliam, Wes Anderson or the Cohen Bros, Big Fish, Forrest Gump, Fight Club, Baraka, Samsara, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, City of Lost Children, Amelie and big-budget special effects movies having to do with the end of the world. I also dig all kinds of documentaries.

TV: The Daily Show, The Late Show. I don't have cable TV and I really don't miss it at all.

Music: I have a range of musical tastes – To give you a better idea of my tastes, here are a few artists I’m digging really hard right now: Gary Clark, Jr., Alabama Shakes, Glass Animals, White Denim, Beck (a long time fave), Mingo Fistrap, Brownout, Alt-J, Tame Impala, Phantogram, Sweet Spirit, Bright Light Social Hour, Frank Ocean, Sarah Jarosz, The Lower 48, Andersen.Paak, Walker Lukens, Ray Lamontagne, Radiohead, Spoon, Santigold, Father John Misty (SO weird), Bon Iver, Sturgill Simpson, The Black Keys, Courtney Barnett, First Aid Kit, Coldplay (longtime fave), The Lumineers, Blur, Mike Snow, My Morning Jacket, okay I’m getting carried away here…

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a professional organizer, so if you have anything in your home that desperately needs organizing, or a chaoticly cluttered area in your home, perhaps I can help you transform it from chaos to order, while we get to know each other in the process! I'm also a professional home stager and interior restyler, so if you have home improvement projects on your mind, or decorating ideas and you want to bounce them off of someone with a keen eye for that sort of thing, I'm your gal.

Countries I’ve Visited

Belize, Canada, England, Greece, Italy, Mexico
