I am...
creative. driven. loyal. optimistic. silly. sweet. sassy. sarcastic. smart. constantly looking for adventure.

I LOVE...
my grandma. :). my friends. laughing until it hurts. photo adventures. thrifting for records and then listening to them. my juicer and all the veggies. playing in the rain, snow, at the beach (the nude beach, that is). happy hours. great conversations. fires. cheese. ipa's. going to the gym. being outside. berry picking. getting crafty. playing with melted glass and fire!! art.random unplanned adventures. getting lost. people watching. the sky at all times of day.

let the chips fall where they may...

making people smile. cooking and hosting dinner parties. multitasking. having endless amounts of energy (more than anyone I know). road tripping. being dorky. solving technical problems. buying too many records at a time. beating any old school mario game. finding adventure (or do they find me). madlibs. telling stories. making and playing with fires. making mixes. cuddling. seeing the silver lining. being creative. being a friend and laughing genuinely.

hmmm I think my eyes, maybe my smile, and definitely my infectious laugh.

food, and how to get that food in my tummy.

just ask...I'm really not shy, at all.
