I give Christopher Street Tours because...

At the core of who I am, I am an educator, and I find a lot of my joy in my work through spreading knowledge to others.

What inspires you to share LGBTQ+ history?

I’ve been so inspired by my inner community of friends and family over the years. Not only do their stories deserve to be uplifted, but all the stories of those before us as well.

Best NYC Recommendation

Everyone should go to the Museum of the City of New York at least once. It is highly underrated!
