My self-summary
I am very passionate about life, and love taking advantage of the amazing Bay Area with all of its various opportunities. I love adventures and spontaneous activities. While I like someone to have serious conversations and debates with, I also want to be able to have tromp around in the rain, and stay in to play board games. I'm also allergic to cats, I'm from Canada but you'll never hear me say "eh?", I am now officially addicted to NPR while in the car, and my two younger sisters are the people that I prize most in my life.
What I’m doing with my life
Just finished my applications to MBA and MA programs focusing on social innovation. While I'm waiting to hear back, I am gaining as much experience in the social sector as possible. Right now I'm working full time as a Program Coordinator for a Youth Commission, a counselor at a home for youth with eating disorders, and a volunteer case manager for girls coming out of juvenile hall. I also am in two dance companies in the Bay, a contemporary and a bollywood.

When I'm not working, volunteering, or at dance class/rehearsal, I'm either:

-in the kitchen trying out a new paleo dish
-at crossfit
-hiking in the east bay
-shopping at a farmers' market or the TI flea market
-dancing at a club in the city with my friends
-brainstorming ideas of fantastic things to do this summer before I loose my life to graduate school
-adding to my life to-do list
-out in Palo Alto fruit batting with friends
I’m really good at
Being passionate and committed to things. Whether that is leading a green lifestyle, keeping up with my dancing, or discussing current political situations.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm rather short, but super outgoing. My nickname in gymnastics when I was a kid was Mighty Mouse, and I think that sums it up pretty accurately. Best thing about being tiny though, is that I'm never too big for anything. Airplane seats, finding things that dropped under the couch - not a problem!
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Favorite things in general: Farmers' markets, scream sorbet in Oakland, Rainbow grocery in SF, hikes, dive bars, board games, cooking and baking, dance offs in parking lots

Books: 1984, The Giver, Little Women, When God was a Woman, the entire Harry Potter series, various psychological/gender studies/sociological books, dystopian novels.

Movies: Hanna, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc., V for Vendetta, the Muppets, Kill Bill

Food: Paleo, as local as possible, organic. Pretty much as bay area as it gets.
The six things I could never do without
Travel
Education/Learning
Friends
Intellectual conversation
Dance
Dark Chocolate
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Different graduate school programs, various crazy jobs I'd love to do, analyzing society and all it's constructions. When I'm in a less serious mood, creating ideas for possible epic parties or social plans.
On a typical Friday night I am
Catching up on laundry, grocery shopping, or other mundane tasks I've put off. Working at one of my jobs. Curling up with a good book, catching up on TV from the week, going out with friends, attempting some new baked goods.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Just went paleo about a few months ago and loving it. Started it not to be trendy, but rather because I have Celiac and found it a great way to get all the nutrition I need. Juggling trying to minimize my carbon footprint with all the meat though, so am just sticking with wild fish and organic pasture raised poultry.
I’m looking for
