About this Lister

I’m a nonprofit professional, musician, and hobbyist matchmaker with a yen for epistolary, low-screen living.

Background and Expertise

I have no particular credentials other than a romantic bent and a nose for human compatibility. I met my partner off the apps (we were set up by friends 💕), and I want to pay it forward by getting NYC off the hamster wheel of swiping.
