About the roomies
Hi y’all! I’m a queer woman, mid-30s, seeking one roommate. I’ve lived in New Orleans more than 16 years. I’ve worked in museums and historic preservation, and I’m currently doing research and pursuing my PhD.
Seeking someone who is queer or queer-friendly and strives to be anti-racist, conscientious, and kind. Someone who will communicate clearly, help keep common spaces clean, and respect our neighbors.
