I grew up in Ohio, never thinking I would get to NYC by age 18, yet I did. After graduating art school I would of thought by now I would be a graphic designer. Instead, I joined Peace Corps and worked as a conversational English teacher in Ukraine. I finished my service and started working on a horse ranch in Arizona. I took a quick vacation to the outback and the second I returned to the states, my friend offered me a job working as a film producer. The movie was a success, but I knew I would never want to be in that line of work. So, I got my masters in early education and do the Hokey Pokey, cause that's what it's all about!!

Teaching the Hokey Pokey. (seriously)

Some activities I enjoy doing: dancing till the last song, hiking in the woods, climbing trees, exploring new avenues, spontaneous road trips, cooking for friends, arm wrestling, it's a close tie between motorcycle rides and unicycle rides.

I am humbly proud that I have traveled extensively and been on every continent except Antarctica. But I will be going there soon I hope! Wanna come?

How bodacious of a babe I am compared to those " Similar Users" who are listed to the right of my profile..... and at times, how strong communication skills are next to godliness.

Roof top parties, wine bars, bonfires on the beach, home alone movie nights, sleepovers with buds, dancing parties, gallery openings, theater, one on one nights with someone special, people watching, camping, home alone reading a book, playing board games, rock climbing, it all depends where I am and what I'm feeling like.

I am a proud member of the mile high club.

You have a black belt in charm and socialization.

Can drive a stick shift car, use jumper cables and change a tire with confidence.
