CURRENT MISSION

Expand my world; step up into my higher self.

ABOUT ME

I'm a quirky, playful interior designer in San Francisco. I love all things art, design, and fashion, and am a sucker for a good flea market or modern art museum. I prefer to cut through small talk and get down to the root of who we are and why, to connect over deeper truth and vulnerability. I love being around emotionally intelligent humans, people who can access their childlike sense of fun and wonder, people who are openly warm. Despite being a modern feminist, I'm also a bit of a 1950's housewife, and love cooking, baking, and entertaining.

PHILOSOPHY

Action is character.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I always want to connect with locals when I travel, and in turn love showing visitors my favorite bits of the city. People are the most interesting part of traveling.

教，学，和分享

I can make bread (this is new!), brew kombucha, cook and bake in general. I can share basic interior design tips (but please don't ask 'What do you think of my place???!!!!?!') I'm a good listener and happy to give thoughtful advice. I love sharing good conversation over wine.
