I recently got a dog who is the sweetest little (non-shedding) furball and is almost guaranteed to sit in your lap within the first minute you meet her. So of course you must at least be open to loving dogs.

Environmentalism and Judaism are big parts of my life and I have spent a lot of time building a community organization that joins the two. I also enjoy hosting parties and planning outdoor adventures with friends.

I like to spread laughter and smiles, but I do take myself and life seriously. That doesn't mean it can't also be fun and dynamic! I am an SF native. I am ultimately looking for a life companion and best friend, and am open to finding out if opposites attract.

I recently made a big job shift and took time off for some wonderful adventures, starting with a trip to Alaska and Oregon. I went to Burning Man for the first time. In the fall I travelled from Maine to North Carolina over 2 weeks via bus. I have lots of stories to share!

More stuff I like: kayaking, dancing, snowshoeing, vegetarian cooking, redwoods, volunteering, graphic design.

My current job (consulting/temporary) is public outreach for environmental/gov projects.

Cutting my own hair. I've been doing it for over a year now. Parallel parking. You might also be interested to know that I'm a decent cook, and I'm resourceful!

My smile and my hair.

I don't watch many movies but usually enjoy the great ones when I do see them. Shows I enjoy include Dexter, Mad Men, Sunny in Philadelphia and House (RIP).
I love folk music, and also listen to a range of other stuff in the car, on the radio, live or at a club.
Food: Lots of cuisines but especially Thai, burritos and sustainable sushi! I'm mostly vegetarian but do eat some seafood. My favorite restaurant is Millennium.

Friends
Sunlight
Healthy food (though I eat other stuff in moderation)
Freedom of expression
Jewish community (or at least people who know what "nosh" means)
Getting into nature

My life to-do list and how to simplify my life; there's always too much to do.

Hanging out with friends, at a community event or maybe dinner with my Mom and chilling with dogs on the couch.

You're caring, funny, intelligent, adventurous and care about making the world a better place. Also, if you're smiling in most or all of your profile pictures!
