I love adventure and travel. I consider myself a free spirit and enjoy making friends in New cities. In am a mom of two, married to my best friend Josh. Graduate of The Ohio State University with a bachelors in comparative cultural studies. I can be a little introverted and awkward but I almost never pass up an opportunity to step outside of my comfort zone and hang out with someone new.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is hard - I grew up on James Taylor and Jim Croche but love the eagles of death metal, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Alabama Shakes, Ed Sheeran, Ty Segall, Jack Johnson, John Butler Trio... The list goes on.

Books - I enjoy memoirs, autobiographies, and social critiques. From time to time I'll read fiction as well.

Movies - anything Bill Murray. I love Life aquatic and Rushmore. I also love Quentin Tarantino.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I visited Australia for some time and traveled the east coast. Bungee jumped, dove the great barrier reef and met tons of awesome friends.
