one being human

we shelter on this globe together

As one among billions being human on the ​planet, One Being Human fosters meaningful ​connections in a disconnected world, with ​Walkie-Talkies, wordsmithing and graphics, ​organizing, and collaborating.

client services

Centering love as its compass, One Being ​Human gathers artistry, whimsy, and ​humility for each project, serving clients ​with compassion, dedication, and ​communication.


We love to help and connect where it counts​—with personalized walks, organizing, ​decluttering, grocerying, healthy cooking, ​erranding, general tech assistance for ​seniors, editing, graphics, research, and ​more.

All of us are

simultaneously

fabulous

and fallible

walkie-talkies

Many of us lost our way in the wake of Covid, ​with exercise and socialization taking a back ​seat as lockdowns sent us indoors.


One Being Human is here to help people ​reconnect with their active and social selves,

one walk at a time.


Walkie-Talkies—a “miracle drug” for our ​physical and mental health.

editing & design

You’re not in this alone! One Being Human is ​here to help your work shine through ​communication and visual-design support ​for individuals and small businesses.


Anyone who needs manuals proofed, ​programs organized, handbooks ​streamlined, a simple website crafted, or ​resumes, letters, and proposals polished will ​benefit from our skills.


We can help you find your way around the ​web, craft a digital family photo album, or ​even help get your book to market.
