Your Notes

Edit your notes

I am dramatic, erudite, and exuberant.

My Self-Summary

Please note, I am not single right now--I can still meet friendly people to say hi, but anything other than that is not an option. Sorry about that.

I'm possibly obsessed with theatre, and definitely spend a whole bunch of time with it.

I just graduated from Northwestern which was mostly fantastic. I've now moved a few stops south on the Red Line in to Uptown and am excited to finally live in a city, rather than a suburb.

I enoy conversation and probably spend too much time talking. But I listen extremely well, too.

I tend to get bored when I'm not working on anything, and lazy when I am. Bit of a problem, that.

Real life has apparently started. Not sure just yet what that means. But it's going well so far. I haven't starved or lost my mind yet!

What I’m doing with my life

Living in this wonderful city and making a life for myself.

Working a some days jobs (hooray for wages!) and starting to inch into theatrical work. If you ask nicely maybe I'll tell you about the play I'm doing and you can come see me act.

Trying to become an engaged person in the world, and contribute something to what's around me. Generally adding to the good things in the world rather than the bad ones.

Singing and laughing loudly.

Worrying and procrastinating, and worrying about how much I procrastinate.

And having a little fun doing it?

I’m really good at

Thinking too hard, enthusiasm, anxiety, delight, singing, both in public settings and in the shower, lengthy conversations that go on tangents and last 3 hours without either of us noticing where the time has gone, acting, being forcefully opinionated, listening to what other people have to say and thinking about it.

Being engaged. This is important. Apathy is deadly.

The first things people usually notice about me

I really wish I could say "my ass" here. But that would be a lie. I'm working on it, though.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

The six things I could never do without

I spend a lot of time thinking about

How to make enough money to live on while still doing what makes me happy, how to be a theatre artist without being a self-absorbed prick, what's coming and what's past.

Plus sex, love, the American Dream, the future of our civilization, you know, minor stuff.

On a typical Friday night I am

Seeing a play, reviewing a play, or performing in a play.

Eating or drinking with friends

Sitting in my apartment wishing I were doing one of the above things.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm terrified of ending up working a shitty non-artistic job, living with my parents, and being single and miserable.

You should message me if

You have something interesting to say, have a sense of humor, and can keep up your end of an interesting conversation. I'll respond. I love to meet new people and hear their stories, see what we have in common and what I can learn from them.

And if you've been thinking about writing to me, but aren't sure, just do. I'll be nice, I promise.
