Looking for a new roommate for a very affordable and spacious Capitol Hill apartment in a great location (right by Lincoln Park). 2bd + 1br. $1000 for the larger bedroom (2 closets!). Basement apartment but very well lit in common area. Hoping for someone chill and friendly, since we'll likely be seeing a lot of each other this year! Flexible move in anytime in October. Prefer female roommate (I'm female as well) since the bathroom is shared. Please message for more information if interested.

I am a female account manager and the majority of my clients are older males. I find myself being interrupted, talked over, and just not taken seriously by many of them.
