Hi! I'm an urban planner working for a community development nonprofit in NYC. I LOVE traveling! I'm passionate about sustainable and local food, urban living, feminism/women and cats. I have a service/traveling instagram (LadyCityTravels) and a blog about urbanism from a feminist lens (medium.com/lady-city)-- check them out!

I'm always down for new adventures and meeting new people, so say hi! I'd love to meet new people in NYC and I'm happy to show people around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked on an organic farm/ Montesorri school in northern New Mexico for 7 months. I learned so much about running a farm, milking goats, plowing with draft horses, children, education, love, trailer life, Espanola culture, frito pies, and the joys of eating freshfreshfresh food!

I also traveled solo in central america for 3 months and it was so inspiring and empowering, everyone, especially women, should travel alone at least once!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a decent cook and I can also organize your closet and your finances. #nerd
