ABOUT ME

Working at a hospital and living in Pueblo for about 3 years now. Loving life in the SW. Hoping to meet some interesting people, hear their stories, learn stuff. I'm kind of a dork! I'll make you a yummy meal, or take you on a walking or bicycle tour of Pueblo!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Toured across the US with a band (on about 2 weeks notice) as violin player in my early twenties. My first taste of crazy, spontaneous travel. Highly recommend doing this!
Tucson sunsets. . . Just saw the Redwoods for the first time this spring. Amazing...
The Salton Sea in Southern California. Also Joshua Tree. . .
Watching Maui, a blind dog I took care of at the Pit Bull sanctuary, going about her life, seemingly unaware of her deficiency, just as happy as ever. It sounds really simple but it was one of those moments that my problems were put into perspective.
