I'm currently living in Brooklyn and working in public outreach at the Hannah Arendt Center at Bard College, NY where I focus on participatory democracy. I run workshops for teachers, activists and public servants. I believe in the power of empathy and critical thinking. I like to play guitar and dance and I often organize intimate house concerts. I speak Spanish. I enjoy talking music, history, politics, and can be quite silly. I organize jam sessions and little events in our space, which we call The Treehouse. I'm also interested in collaborating on interesting creative projects. Don't hesitate to message me with your weird idea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
