About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn as much as I can and teach as much as I know
ABOUT ME
I am a free spirit, brave, kind, funny, witty, optomistic person and loyal friend. I love meeting new people. I am an adventurer, quick learner, and extremely loving mom. I can find beauty, lessons, and humor in almost anything. I'm athletic, a go-getter, and discoverer.
I love that there is a community of people willing to open up their homes to others.
PHILOSOPHY
I am a taoist. I believe there i a good and bad component to everything. There is a balance that keeps things right. I focus on myself and keep my nose out of others business. Do unto others as you would have done to you.
Enjoy life, be a good person, pay attention to the little things. Good Karma will visit you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1. Jumping out of a plane.
2. Jumping off a 70 foot cliff at Lake Powell.
3. Last year there was a huge forest fire in my city, Colorado Springs. A huge wind swept down the canyons (caused by a storm in Steamboat Springs, CO) and it caused the fire to jump over a ridge and go straight down the foothills into a neigborhood. It must have been going 80 miles per hour when it reached the houses. No one was expecting this to happen, so there was a mass evacuation out of this area. It was scary and amazing to see what nature can do. 342 hoses burned in that fire that day.
