Overview
About Me
I’ve done 12 road trips across the United States and been in every state except Hawaii and Alaska. I promote kindness, positivity and fun! I love music, animals, and making new friends! I work for music festivals, Coachella, FYF, Desert Trip, Arroyo Seco, and I manage The Glass House Concert Hall and The Glass House Record Store in Los Angeles, CA. I travel 5-6 months out of the year for work so I’m usually not able to host. I never know when I’m going to be on the road. If you have any tips on vinyl records I’m always looking for vinyl records on the road!

What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share stories about the road, stories about myself. A warm conversation and a new friendship. I get along with pretty much anyone and any animal. I love meeting new people and making new friends. I have friends all over the world!
