A born and raised city girl, I'm a tomboy at heart. I'm passionate and devoted to my work and I'm a constant seeker of a balanced (and active) lifestyle. I love live music like it's my job (it's not). My actual job, and my other love, is books. I recently left a rather corporate career to start my own company and am enjoying choosing my own adventure.

Floatin' like a butterfly and stingin like a bee.

Stocking up for storms.

My smile...or, depending on distance, my laugh.

I'm at the moment ending a long spell of abusing "Andrew Bird Radio" on spottily and am searching for new inspiration. Help! I have a somewhat voracious and open-minded musical palate and can easily fall hard for blues, bluegrass, folk, jazz, soul, reggae and world. Love hearing live music in intimate venues - Barbes, Oracle Club, Bar 55, Smalls, Smoke, 68 Jay are some favorites.

I'm especially attracted to genre-bending comic books and I read according to whim, guilt, recommendation and urgency.

My community, music, the ocean, writing, sunshine and bubble baths.

Training my puppy and deciding where I'll go on my next vacation.

I guess you will just have to find out. Some things are still worth waiting for.

You are kind and easy going; love music, the ocean and food; think spending a summer evening watching the sunset from the staten island ferry rivals carnegie hall.
