ABOUT ME

I like adventure and trying new things. My sweetheart and I do things off-the-cuff at times, whether it be heading to a concert, a fun night out a restaurant...Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives are among our favorites to explore. I love love love learning about new cultures and traveling so I can experience them first hand. Food is my second favorite thing in life. I do have a goal of someday Scuba diving with Great Whites (in a cage dive). I spent two years studying Latin American Studies, and received a certification for it...I am in my last few weeks at Augsburg College (on the weekends) and will a Bachelors Degree in Communications...I am also at Central Lakes College (during the week) working on my nursing degree....my longterm goal...to be a Registered Nurse who is bilingual (English & Spanish).
