CURRENT MISSION

To live, live right and live well.

ABOUT ME

I am exactly who I am. I like to laugh, I'm always smiling, and I am constantly learning through trial and error (lots and lots of errors!). I love to travel, I love to experience and I love to watch TV (my addiction). I have read all of the Harry Potter books at least three times each and can recite almost any poem by Emily Dickinson. When I was little, the song "Easy" by the Commodores made me cry, sometimes it still does. In my dreams I laze on Mexican beaches with a margarita and watch the waves breeze in and then disappear back into the ocean.

PHILOSOPHY

Sometime we are asking so many questions that we can't hear any of the answers. I'm not yet sure, "why" I live my life, but I know that I am living it, and right now, that's good enough.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Laying i an open field in Albuquerque, at 5 in the morning with friends, hung over but happy, watching 100's hot air balloons rise into the air, forming a patchwork quilt of helium, and then spreading out to fill the sky. (International Balloon Fiesta '08)
