About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To adapt my perspective by seeing through the eyes of others.

ABOUT ME

I LOVE driving. I love driving fast and driving far. I am the crazy person you pull up next to at the stop light who is singing at the top of her lungs with the radio.
Which brings me to my next point: I LOVE music. Almost all kinds and I don't dislike any I've heard. I like my music loud more often than not. I like to sing along (see above).
I have a cat named Sox. She is very cuddly but slow to warm up to new people and will swat with her claws in if you make her mad, which doesn't happen very often. She also hits dogs :/ and is VERY vocal, likes to talk about everything, and I still have no idea what she is saying...
I am messy in my own home but clean. The difference is seemingly disorganized stuff everywhere but I clean underneath it often. I do not like mold, it gives me headaches. I will not be messy in your home.
I also don't like cigarettes. They also give me headaches.
Let's see, I also like food, LOVE sushi, like movies, like adventures, like people, LOVE animals, like beaches (Coastal Cali born and raised), but not the water if I can't see my feet, I like trying new hobbies and LOVE being creative!
I will add more if I think of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-I did half of a front flip on a bike into a foam pit.
-I walked 80 ft on my hands.
-I climbed 20 ft up a cliff in Joshua Tree CA.
-I've seen all sorts of different animals be born, including my younger sister.
-Lots of gymnastics stuff.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a little bit about a lot of random things.
Stuff about human evolution and behavior (fascinating to me). Stuff about animals, mainly farm life. Worked in tech support for a few years. Went to cosmetology school at AVEDA (hair cutting, hair dying, etc) in addition to Mechanical Engineering at UCLA and now Early Childhood Education at Frontrange College. I make jewelry (mostly beading, not as much metal working as I would like). I am a gymnast and former coach. I make costumes, sewing. Very basic construction, I can build something that will stay up, but it might not be pretty. Recruiting and publicity.

I want to learn:
Mandarin
More about construction
