I work in radio, and fill up my time with live music, writing for a few local publications, traveling, going to baseball games, and hanging out with my partner. We love meeting new people.

I identify as a Chican@ feminist, and I'm interested in helping raise awareness and a voice for those who may not have one otherwise.

I'm pretty shy and I'm terrible with small talk, but I do want to get to know ya!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My first time traveling alone was maybe the best thing I've done for myself, especially on a holiday that is typically spent with family. It wasn't anything crazy, just a few days with my pup in the New Mexican desert. But it allowed me to travel more by myself and with friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I identify as a Feminist, and I'm comfortable and happy with all genders and sexualities, as well as religions (I love learning from people, and I love all types). I'm a Latina, and I'm learning a lot about my background from that. These are two things I'm very passionate about.

I'm very involved in our local music community and love showing it off!

I'm discovering how easy it is to travel internationally, and I'm making it a point to do so annually.

I love learning about... so many things from other people. You can just talk to me about your life and I'll be totally interested and excited about it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have always been taught to make things better than I left them, so I try to be courteous, clean, and quiet. I appreciate folx opening their spaces to me and my people, and I can help in any way when I'm staying .
