I am a creative soul with a rich intellectual life. My must haves in life include: estatic dancing; listening to every type of music known to humankind; fostering life long learning in all those I encounter (in school and out); laughing; engaging in meaningful conversations and unlocking passion.

I am artsy, rubenesque, and sultry

I am an educator/adminstrator with literary aspirations. I am also the mother of a late blooming 28 year old. (He lives in Ca).

Estatic dance; vascillating between being industrious and procrastinating; problem solving and finding humor.

My palpable air of mystery

Favorite books come and go depeding on who I am reading at the moment. Longterm favorites include: The Bluest Eye; Nickled & Dimed in America; and Sympathy Between Humans. My favorite movies since I was in middle school have been The Seventh Seal; Wild Strawberries; and The Blue Dahlia. A recent addition is Julie Dash's Daughters of the Dust.

I have very eclectic tastes and I listen to all genres of music. I lead estatic dance classes (moving meditation) so, I am always looking for music that is going to entice people to move. My play list include everything from Gregorian chants to Nikki Minaj, but I listen to a lot of trip hop/electronica; world music; Dead Can Dance; Jazz and House music. I also listen to classical; metal and country.

In terms of food; I am dilligently working to retrain my taste buds; they inexplicably prefer yeasty foods like bread and pasta to fresh veggies, but I am working on them.

How I can become less self-absorbed (just kidding). I think about how to grow (professionally and personally); how to better serve my students and the teachers I supervise; starting a business; and how to shift the country to the left.

Too pooped to party most Fridays, quiet evenings in or out with friends

I am a daydreamer

You are truly open to looking beyond the surface of things. You value kindness
