I'm a highly educated, responsible professional, in excellent health & spirits. With abundant references, including US Global Entry / Known Traveler status.
A long-time (thirty year) story developer for leading businesses, a writer-poet, a passionate, seasoned cook and lover of art, music, literature; a world traveler; avid gardener; sailor; gentleman.
Well versed in caring for all kinds of households, large and small; likewise, interacting and communicating comfortably with people of all ages, from all walks of life.
I love & appreciate animals; understand their distinct personas and needs. I've had my own, both dogs and cats, old and young. And enjoy their playfulness, seriousness, quirkiness.
I've won the "best house guest award" from hosts far and wide. And accolades as the best host for those I've had at my homes, tables.
Why house-sitting? As a way to explore and experience new and diverse living environments; surroundings. Moveable feasts. And, to inspire and enrich my writing; poetry, image-making; thinking.
What makes me an excellent choice as a major-domo? All the above qualities, including being a meticulous fellow, with a strong aesthetic for orderliness, cleanliness, beauty. And, having deep direct experience running households of my own, several at a time, from city co-ops to country houses. Including Manhattan's Upper West Side and the Hamptons.
Being a true major-domo: a confident steward of place, also involves exceptional care of, respect for, each dwelling, each property; tending to it like an owner throughout.
I'm the right fit for the right homeowners, property-owners; who value these individual and collective qualities.
People, too, seeking a warm, engaging personality, with a healthy, enthusiastic approach to daily life.
