ABOUT ME

A girly tomboy working hard to balance the love of technology with the need to unplug. Devout practitioner of the written word. Obsessive music compulsive. An enthusiastic Yogalista, can build a fire, catch trout, and outpace younger girlfriends on the ascent to Upper Fishtail Falls (Steamboat Springs, CO). Comfortable in waders (and Pradas). Most happy in the kitchen (especially with my children) and on my mat.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm going to sleep with my glasses on so I can see my dreams more clearly.
