  • Description

    Hi! I am a college student currently studying environmental policy and public health in Maine, but I grew up in New York City, which means I’m comfortable both in fast-paced environments and in quieter, more nature-centered settings. I love to travel and meet new people and am very curious and adaptable to new environments. I care deeply about sustainable living, land stewardship, and environmental health. My academic work focuses on how environmental systems and human wellbeing are connected, and I love learning through hands-on experiences—whether that’s gardening, conservation work, community projects, or helping with everyday tasks around a home or property. In terms of personality, I’m thoughtful, positive, and reliable. Friends would describe me as calm, organized, and easy to be around. I love having meaningful conversations, but I’m also very respectful of shared space and routines. I don’t need constant entertainment and am completely fine spending time exploring on my own! I’ve had experience working in sustainability-focused roles, research settings, and service environments, which has taught me how to show up consistently, communicate clearly, and take initiative when something needs to be done. I’m also a Pilates instructor, so movement, body awareness, and helping others feel comfortable and supported are important parts of who I am. I’m happy to help with a wide range of tasks and am a quick learner!
    Thank you for considering hosting me :)

  • More details about your skills

    I grew up working around the house and am happy to help with projects that involve gardening, conservation, organizing, or general upkeep. I’m attentive, reliable, and careful with shared spaces.
    I have experience in sustainability-focused work, including outreach, event organization, and managing social media for an environmental office. I’m very comfortable following instructions and working independently once shown a task. I also work as a Pilates instructor, which means I’m used to physical work, clear communication, and creating a positive, supportive environment. I have experience working with animals, as I volunteer regularly at a local animal shelter, where I help clean, feed, and care for animals. I have a dog of my own and in the past I've worked as a dog sitter. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments and am happy to help with animal care, walking, feeding, cleaning, or general assistance.
    In addition, I have experience in:
    Cleaning and maintaining shared spaces
    Food preparation and basic kitchen help
    Customer service and working in fast-paced environments
    Research, organization, and basic computer skills
    Communicating clearly and respectfully with people of different backgrounds
