About myself ... last year, I completed my master's degree, so now I am at the beginning of what I hope is a long and fulfilling career. My life, however, extends well beyond work and academia. Some other things I love include travel, music, and the outdoors. I have been on some amazing trips around Europe, to the United States, and all across Canada from Vancouver to St John's. I am a trumpeter and have been playing actively all through my university career. My favourite kind of music, both to play and to listen to, is jazz: everything from swing to fusion, Henry Mancini to Miles Davis. I enjoy outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, kayaking, and canoeing (I paddle on the left, so I hope you're normal and prefer the right :). I really enjoy puzzles and games. I can solve a Rubik's cube, complete hard Sudoku puzzles, but please don't ask me for help with a crossword. I will always enjoy a good game of cribbage, chess, poker, or maybe even scrabble.

I just started a new job in a new city. It's a rather dramatic change in my life, and while I may find rather intimidating, I look forward to the possibilities it brings.

I'm very level-headed about almost everything.

I'm not sure, but rest assured Facebook is not on this list.

Interesting computer problems. Sometimes I get paid for it :)

Enjoying a quiet evening at home.

Never you mind ;)

I'm looking for someone who hopefully shares some of my interests but also has her own unique passions and talents. Enthusiasm is another quality I am looking for in a partner, not just for her interests or mine, but for the little things too.
