ABOUT ME

Classy but sassy. After twentyish years in school, I'm at a personal and professional crossroads. Call it the intersection of Broadway and Not So Easy Street. In September I move (back) to New York City to look for my first full-fledged job. With any luck it will intersect with one or more of my serious interests, which, aside from those listed three boxes down include languages (especially ancient Greek), theater, cultural criticism & history, ballet, gymnastics, morality, clubbing, and tea parties. I'm more a creature of habit than reason and would like to change that. CouchSurfing seems like a step in the right direction.
