CURRENT MISSION

To be the adult I wanted to be as a kid

ABOUT ME

i'm a pretty mellow person. I'm terrible at telling stories (it's ok. I've accepted it) but great at listening to them. I like ideas. I LOVE dogs--they make my heart burst...especially little ones in sweaters on a brisk day. I can lift heavier things than you might expect. I juice. If I have my juicer, we can juice. I pretend I can play the ukulele. Sometimes I feel like a caricature. Bikes scare me to an irrational extreme--if you can help me past this, we shall be friends for life.

PHILOSOPHY
