Doctoral candidate seeking room in Westside or Bur

Hey, I am Karl (36), a doctoral candidate finishing up my Ed. D. in Instructional Design and Technology at the University of West Florida. I am looking to move out of DTLA into a chill, quiet residential house on the Westside (Mar Vista, Palms, Culver City, West LA) or Burbank/Glendale starting around February 1 or May 1.

I keep a low-key, grounded routine focused on doctoral research, reading, creative projects, and tabletop gaming on weekends. My income is steady and guaranteed every month, so rent is always on time. I am clean, respectful of shared spaces, non-smoking, and easy to live with.

I have my dog, Mozz, who is a trained, documented service animal (I have full paperwork). She is sweet, quiet, house-trained, and happy sun-napping while I study. Having a yard or enclosed patio where I can easily let her out is a big priority for me. Looking for laid-back, mature housemates and a peaceful place to settle in long-term.
