Description
I'm a graphic designer that can work anywhere there's wifi. I love learning, making things, meeting new people, and exploring places. I'm an artist from a very small rural town who loves cities for the culture, the arts, and public transportation. (I can drive, but I don't like the American car culture and wish it was easier to live here without a car.)
I enjoy long trips but don't care for tourist attractions. I prefer to learn about the people and the culture, it turns out! I'd rather have a Hungarian person tell me why there's a giant metronome above Budapest than just go see it up close without the backstory. I will always listen to the audio guide and take the historic walking tour.
I would love to return to Japan, Spain, Czech Republic, or Germany, but my bucket list is long! I want to explore more of the US and Canada, and hope to attend the Cervantino festival in Guanajuato someday soon!Interests

I've done marketing and graphic design for 20 years, from making brochures to ecommerce websites to social media videos. I can work with you to create a marketing plan or make things that help you reach your goals. We can build up a catalog of social media graphics and schedule them out for after I leave. I'd love to help you hype yourself!
I'm a slow but decent cook, but good at cleaning, organizing, tidying up. I can help with small home improvement tasks like painting and putting together furniture, or picture framing. I enjoy all crafts, including sewing and making jewelry, and I have been taking classes in ceramics for the past year. I still want to learn to knit. I just love making things, digital and tangible!Age
