About Me

CURRENT MISSION

gaining experience without growing up. making art. finding the perfect way to cook leftovers.

ABOUT ME

I cook, I knit, I find adventures to have around my fabulous city. I love my work in the theater, public art projects, and unusual combinations of genre. I also love listening to stories, and learning what motivates people.

PHILOSOPHY

Take it as it comes. The world is a big weird place, and the people are weirder, but that's the beauty of it all!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Here in New York, I've been to some fun gatherings too, and organized a Free Hugging event with a CSer from Denmark.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

How do people decide what to write here? On the one hand, everything feels amazing sometimes, and on the other, it feels so mundane.

Teach, Learn, Share

One of my favorite parts of interacting with other surfers has been cooking together, sharing recipes. What would you like to make?
