CF Roommate Needed in Arlington Area July 1st or ASAP

My roommate and I are looking for a clean, professional Christian female to take over my roommate's portion of the lease starting July 1st (or as soon as possible) for approximately one year. My roommate unfortunately lost her job due to COVID-19 and, at the same time, her older brother got cancer. She has decided to move back to Pennsylvania to be close to family in this uncertain time.  

Some details about the apartment: 
-Rent is $950 without utilities 
-Utilities (internet and electricity) come to about $35-$50 each depending on how much electricity is used
-Your bedroom would be the master (the only one with a closet)
-The apartment is located in a beautiful, family friendly area of Cherrydale, Arlington and is within walking distance to a Chipotle, Starbucks, UPS store, and wine store (What more do you need? :)). Woodstock Park is also located right down the street. 
-2 Bed / 1 Bath
-Water, gas, and trash is included
-Street parking is ample and free. There is also a paid permit parking option in the lot.
-Laundry is coin operated and located in the basement level (where a free bike storage room is also located)
-Our apartment is on the top floor, corner unit, which means we have the most windows and tons of natural light
-There is a bus stop right outside the apartment that goes directly into downtown DC during peak hours (about 18 mins)
-Driving distance to DC - 8 minutes
-1.5 miles from either Ballston or Clarendon station
-Our apartment community is a lot of young, working professional women. In the summer months, there's a group of ladies who like to socialize next to a fire pit out back. There is also a covered pergola that is furnished for sitting in and a community garden. All our neighbors are very kind and friendly (only 11 units total in the building). 

Some details about me:
-I'm a 27 year old teacher. 
-I really enjoy living in a clean apartment.
-I'm actively involved in leading worship, Chinese bible study, and a small group with my church.
-Four years ago, I spent a year teaching abroad in Guangzhou, China and would like to continue improving my Chinese.
-I'm currently teaching all freshmen at a high school, where I've taught for four years. Next year, I will teach freshmen and juniors. I'm also the Sophomore Class Sponsor, Debate Coach, and Mock Trial coach, so come fall I will be super busy with school.
-I would prefer living with someone who is a Christian and active with their relationship with Jesus.
-Most of my evenings are spent grading papers and watching "This is Us" or true crime documentaries.
-I love: quiet mornings with a good book and a cup of coffee, reading, building community, hosting friends for dinner, worshiping Jesus, DIY projects, cross stitching and crocheting.
-I do have a cat. Her name is Zula and she's the sweetest thing. She's a little black and white tuxedo cat; she's about 2-3 years and very affectionate. My roommate, who is moving out, and I adopted her last October. She can do tricks and loves people. Her litter box is concealed in a wooden cabinet that I made in the hallway, so there is no smell or mess with the litter.

Let me know if this sounds like a fit. If you are interested, I can send you some pictures. Please direct all inquiries to findingagoodroommate@gmail.com 

Looking forward to hearing from you soon, 

Andrea
