I am a very dedicated and driven person giving 110% to everything I put my mind to. I'm very happy with my career and every aspect of my life, and would love to share this happiness and these special moments with that special someone. My passion for arts & culture extends from fashion, to the theatre, to the symphopny. I have a great sense of humor and LOVE to laugh. Other interests (besides laughter) are going to museums, salsa dancing, and dining out.

I am a classical musician and music educator.

When people first meet me, they notice my friendly & outgoing personality. I am very comfortable at any event where I can mingle and socialize. One of my best traits is being able to walk in to a room where I know no one, and walk out having made new friends and connections.

BOOKS - I love the vivid writing of Toni Morrison. "Sula" and "The Bluest Eye" are my favorite novels of hers. Her writing is so illustrative. It's as if she is painting a picture with each line. "Geek Love" is also a favorite of mine in addition to Ralph Ellison's "Invisible Man".

You should message me if you value authenticity. A person who is genuine is a person who is happy and confident with who they are. One of my favorite sayings is: "Surround yourself with people who radiate light, not those who dim your light each time you see them." I love to be around positive people who have a great spirit.
