I was born and raised in Colorado, and even though my parents have lived in the same house for 27 years, i personally have lived all over the place from Ojai, CA, to Ithaca, NY, Hawaii, Napa, France and beyond. Most recently i lived in New York City for 2 years, then Newport Beach for 7 months, and now Santa Monica!

I'm Ivy League educated, and a little fratty, but mostly i think i'm pretty hilarious. I tend to have an incredibly positive outlook on just about everything, I work incredibly hard, and I tend to spend my days off consuming pretty decadently, and mostly i'm just looking to have a great time with people who are a little bit ridiculous.

above all, i really care very deeply for puppies, neon colors, drinking games, and awesome clothes.

I run a restaurant.

I am both awesome, and largely unavailable.

singing, cooking, giving directions, reading people, big buck hunter, choosing brunch spots, drinking games, dipping it low, picking it up slow

my energy, my smile, my awesome taste in shoes. i got fresh kicks for days.

it usually takes people a little bit to notice my eyes, but i think they're my best feature.

books: harry potter.

music: Give me a good singer or great beat and i'm in. Currently on my playlist are: Robyn, Frank Ocean, William Fitzsimmons, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Kanye, Gotye, Adele, Cee-lo, Gaga, Ray Lamontagne, David Guetta, Justin Bieber, Mark Ronson, Miguel, Dave Barnes, Gavin Degraw, Jason Derulo and Florence + the Machine to touch on very few

movies: Sister act 2. best movie ever. also, american psycho, romeo + juliet, the rules of attraction, VickyCristinaBarcelona, any harry potter, any lord of the rings, hocus pocus.

tv: archer, Tosh.0, workaholics, blue mountain state, the league, chelsea, so you think you can dance, eastbound and down, true blood, modern family, 30 rock, community, the office, greek, and sometimes seasons 1 and 2 of The OC.

food: i approach eating like a puppy approaches a walk. i don't necessarily do it because i need to, but i love it, and i want it to be as pleasant as possible. i rarely repeat a restaurant, and i get absurdly excited to try new places, especially ones with sexy build outs, and awkward sounding food, think beet carpaccio with fennel dust and pickled ramps. I've had my life changed by many a dish, partially due to the fact that i've devoted my professional life to serving food, partially because pork belly can just be so delicious it makes you realize what a waste of time everything else is.

sunglasses
cee lo
brunch
coffee
bourbon
rainbows; the flip flop, not the phenomenon

the house in which i am going to retire
why pandora sometimes nails it and sometimes fails horribly
my next meal
unicorns

If I'm not working, im doing something ridiculous. I guess that's the same for every day.

I don't really get very embarrassed by things, so there isn't much i'm not willing to admit. I guess the fact that i cry at just about every movie is mildly private. mildly.

you have an interest in hanging out.

which you should, cuz i'm awesome.
