Greetings and salutations! I am a current U of M - Flint grad student preparing to start a new, and second, career in the entertainment field. I am kind, compassionate, funny and loyal. I have never been married and do not have any children. I am not looking for marriage or sexual flings. I am looking for a sincere woman who is comfortable in her own skin to spend quality time with. I will not play games and promise not to make any promises.

Current: Graduate School. Meditation.
Former: Songwriting. Performance. Ministry.
Future: Teacher. Trainer. Better person.

(Hint: All of these short responses could be perfect conversational starting points. For this reason, I intentionally answered them in this manner.)

Improvisation, vocal acrobatics, offending sensibilities, offering unsolicited advice, starting conversations with complete strangers, and laughing at completely random and often inappropriate times.

My neoprene cape and dry-clean-only tights?

Middle Eastern food is my favorite by far.

Books, for me, are a bit of an addiction. I love the feel and smell of them so much! A library offers the same feelings to me, as a church does to the believer, as choirs of angels break into chorus upon my entrance into one.

Resting from the grind of academia and performing karaoke.
