About This Lister

Hi! I’m Katy (she/her) — a community builder, events professional, and creative in my 30s. I’m also a singer/songwriter, so I deeply value spaces that nurture reflection, inspiration, and a sense of ease. This apartment has been that space for me — a sanctuary that supports both my work and my art.

I’m the current tenant and have lovingly made this home my own. I’m very clean, organized, and thoughtful about how my space creates peaceful energy. My current roommate is traveling and looking to rent their room for a few weeks, and we are looking for an individual who will care for the space as much as we do.

I live here full time and will be your main point of contact. I have a great relationship with my neighbors and really value the quiet, calm, respectful energy in our building.

Happy to answer any questions and make sure this is a great fit for both of us!
