My Self-Summary

I'm a pretty happy person. I'm creative yet practical. I like making beautiful things, whether that's dinner or something that hangs on the wall. I'm open-minded and easy to get along with. My life is mostly normal with a few choice deviations, and I like it that way.

I'm a voracious learner, endlessly curious, will try anything once, and my mouth frequently gets me into trouble. Austin is my hometown, and if I moved anywhere else, it would be from a short list of places that are as good as or better than this one. I believe in hard work, finding pleasure where I can, and being proactive. Passivity as a way of life is my biggest pet peeve. There's so much to do and see out there --- why on earth wouldn't you be out doing it?

What I’m doing with my life

I'm keeping my job in marketing while trying to build out a business on the side so that I can do something I really love full-time within the next few years. I'm having a lot of fun while I pay my dues. It's still a little bit hard for me to wrap my head around the fact that I can make a good living on my own schedule doing something I'd happily do for free.

I’m really good at

Trivial Pursuit, cooking, making things pretty, dog wrangling, making a mean Manhattan, communicating, losing track of time when I'm working in Photoshop, accidentally making dirty jokes, utilizing the Oxford comma, having fun in almost any situation, swimming, devising strategems, plowing through books, recalling relatively useless information, selecting produce, daydreaming, and geeking out about a small subset of my broader interests.

The first things people usually notice about me

My eyes. I know it's cliche, but that's what people mention the most. They're big and dark green with an amber ring around the pupil. Apparently, I smell really good, too. I like good perfume, and mine is pretty darn delightful.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Books: Operating Instructions by Anne Lamott, A Walk in the Woods by Bill Bryson, Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, A Moving Feast by Hemingway, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen... there are a lot

Movies: Amélie, The Godfather, Secretary, Howl's Moving Castle, Lost in Translation. There are many, many more. I like smart movies, documentaries, beautiful cinematography, things that put me on the edge of my seat with anticipation.

Music: Most of it, but not country and really angry metal. I would be equally happy seeing Breaking Benjamin or Death Cab as I would going to the Elephant Room or to a chamber music concert.

Food: Anything but fast food. I haven't met an ethnicity whose food I didn't like, and I love to cook.

The six things I could never do without

1. Books. I love books.
2. My dogs. They're giant muppet men.
3. My camera.
4. Writing supplies.
5. Iced coffee.
6. The people I love.

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Stories and their elements. Good design. Art. Architecture. Work. Friends and family. The dogs, and how I should probably take them swimming. What I want out of life and what I need to to next to be closer to getting those things. Photography... always about photography. Why people (including myself) do what they do. What thing I should dream up and create next.

On a typical Friday night I am

I have a few standing social engagements during the work week, so Friday isn't such a big deal to me. Maybe doing something with the girls. Maybe doing takeout and a movie and recovering from the week. Maybe having a few people over for a glass of wine before we go out to dinner. Maybe working on my side business so that I feel like I have the weekend freed up to do fun stuff.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I'm not vanilla. Yes, in that sense of vanilla. Feel free to ask questions.

You should message me if

You're smart and witty and looking for someone who will get your quasi-obscure references or want to be able to talk about that story you both heard on NPR that morning without getting a blank stare in return. I have a healthy sense of competition and want to feel like I'm not just equally matched, but at a slight disadvantage. You should have your act together. Why? Because confidence and dominance combined with intelligence flat-out do it for me. Rawr. And because I'm not running a life coaching/dating operation.

If we're well-matched in those ways, I'm a total pussycat. An easygoing, charming companion is what I am. Not scary at all, really. I promise. Why are you looking at me like you don't believe me?
