    At home

  • Description

    I've been living abroad since I was 16, first in India, Barcelona, and a few different places in the US. I'm currently studying for a Master's in Urban Planning and my interests are primarily in climate resilience. I was studying Architecture and Visual arts (ceramics) before, so I also enjoy anything hands-on!

    In my free time, I love bouldering/climbing, biking, laying in my hammock, dancing, drawing, making crafts, and watching sunsets. I try to learn a new skill or two (and get good at it) every year. This year is salsa and bachata.

    Travelling has led me to the most wonderful places and people, and I'm hoping to continue that!

  • More details about your skills

    I've worked in various studios for public artists, photographers, and architects. Any hands-on building/repairing work is up my alley. I used to spend summers helping my friend fix up his house by the water, from spring cleaning, building a pontoon, painting the side of the house, setting up a boat lift, etc.

    I'm not a professional carpenter, so I'll probably need some guidance when it comes to building things, but I enjoy problem-solving, I'm detail-oriented, and have good spatial skills too!

    In my planning work, I'm passionate about climate resilience, so I'm trying to get first-hand experiences in farming and other sustainable living practices around the world.

    I also have photo retouching, graphic design, basic web design, and video editing skills if that's helpful.
    I can cook and bake pretty well too (for my roommates, commercial kitchen experience, food stylist assistant, etc), and love to share that with others!

    Generally, I'm great at learning things on the go, whether it's software or hands-on things, and bring a great attitude (:
