Hi Ok Cupid Fellas! I moved to Denver 2 years ago and love it here. I am originally from San Diego but have very strong ties to New England. I am pretty active in the outdoors and love to ski/snow shoe in the winter(I am doing my first back country hut trip this winter) and love to hike, bike, camp and paddle board in the summer. Running is my main form of exercise and I run outside year round. I have completed 2 half marathons and am training for my first full.

I am a pretty independent, laid back, drama-free, jeans and flip flop kinda girl(but will rock the heels:) I try and live by the golden rule and definitely prefer quality over quantity.

Living it, I had a very blunt reminder that life can be short a few years ago. Trying to get out and see as much of this world as I can. Spending time with family and great friends. Enjoying my job and loving the career that I am in.

Keeping a positive/optimistic attitude(even in the world of on-line dating!), being active but knowing/enjoying when to lay low, being environmentally aware, getting bumps and bruises(I can be a klutz), enjoying getting away from my computer and phone for a few, cooking and hosting parties, flailing down steep mogul runs(this year is the year!!), loving life in Vail's back bowls and sipping yummy beers after great runs at A-Basin.

My blue eyes.

Books: Born to Run( Jenn Shelton is kinda my superhero), Bon Appetit, Outside/Runner's Magazine, CNN.com
TV: Modern Family, Anthony Bourdain No Reservations, Shark Week, The Amazing Race, Dirty Jobs
Food: Pho on 6, Illegal Pete's, Izakaya Den, Euclid Hall, Finley's Pub, Vert..good bbq, anything grilled over charcoal, cheese and veggies
Music: Ghetto blasting hot jams while running. Adele and Norah Jones in the early morning, classic rock, Pandora, Johnny Cash, Mumford and Sons(but feel that they are a little over played). Modest Mouse, Death Cab For Cutie, Kid Cudi. Shows at Lincoln's Road House and other small venues. Still have to see a show or two at Red Rocks every summer!

1.) Good strong coffee (Love Pete's and Conscious Coffee)
2.) Sunshine, Colorado blue bird days
3.) Laughter and witty banter. I adore when the conversation just flows.
4.) Travel and seeing/experiencing new places and things
5.) Great food and drink, I eat pretty healthy but will throw down for an amazing burger, good bbq(I try and go to the Frisco BBQ Challenge every year), steak, beer and wine.
6.) My absolutely amazing family and friends

Balance..work/play, my family and friends, my gait and if I am a bouncer?? Why I am having a hard time meeting an awesome outdoorsy guy in Colorado?! The fact that my girlfriends here are amazing and can bring me to tears laughing!. How much I love it when you see a runner just loving their run(big ole grin is always a dead give away:)

Hanging with friends either at a dinner party, happy hour or bbq. Packing for a impromptu road trip(really like Moab and can't wait to get up to Montana), getting some zzzz's for a great day of skiing, hiking or riding. Watching a movie, the list could go on...

My best friend and I where on a trip abroad a couple of years ago and got dowry offers for goats and sheep. At her wedding, her hubby and I borrowed a bunch of live goats and sheep and had them at the reception to surprise her:) Best wedding ever!

If you are a fun-loving, outdoorsy type of guy who sees the glass as half full, treats a lady with respect but isn't looking for a princess, isn't trying to date every girl on this web site, is looking for a partner, loves to laugh and lives in Colorado! Oh Yeah and isn't afraid of a girl who knows what she wants in life and goes after it!

Good luck, I hope that you all find your dream boat:)
