“Founder of BAEsed: The First Dating App for Gay Conservatives”

Interests

About Me

I'm a licensed mental health counselor and the founder of BAEsed, the first dating app designed for gay conservatives and free-thinkers who are tired of hyper-politicized, judgmental swiping culture. As a clinician, I’ve spent years helping individuals heal from trauma, toxic relationships, and identity confusion — and now, I’m bringing that insight into the tech space.

BAEsed is more than a dating app — it’s a cultural movement. I built it to give a voice to those who feel politically homeless in both the gay community and the dating world. We offer in-app personality assessments, humor style quizzes, and values-based matching because we believe love should be intentional, not ideological.

I'm passionate about honest conversations on identity, dating, culture, mental health, and what it means to love (and live) with integrity. I’d be a great guest for podcasts that dare to challenge the status quo — and still believe in connection that transcends politics.
