About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live to work, live to love, and love whatever you do.

ABOUT ME

I would rather write than watch television. I would rather talk than text.
I love cats, expresso, carbs, and am mostly vegan.
While traveling I have met interesting people from all walks of life. This has given me an appreciation of other cultures, beliefs, and customs.
I sing and write jazz music, swing and salsa dance, and love public transportation.
I am pretty laid back and easy going.

A California native so 60 degrees is cold.
I lived in New Jersey, Pleasanton, Laguna Niguel, Barcelone, Rome, on a cruise ship (I was working), Hollywood, and worked in Paris singing jazz.

PHILOSOPHY

I have lived an interesting life. I have wonderful memories, experiences, and stories. Life is a journey full of lessons to be learned so we can grow.

I live now in the moment for it cannot be captured.

Interests

Music, history, art appreciation, salsa, swing dancing. I am a museum freak and get Stendhal Syndrome for fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything in 3-D (I just saw Superman), The Girl On the Bridge, La Vie En Rose, I haven't seen the new Gatsby movie and loved the book.

I like all genres of music from techno to jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working as Betty Boop, Carmen Miranda, and singing at Universal Studios Hollywood and Japan.

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy teaching dance and would like to teach English. Teaching taught me patience. I would also love to learn more Spanish and Italian because the languages are so beautiful. My French is limited to ballet steps and the song Autumn Leaves.
I love animals and volunteer at the shelter where they do not put any animals down.
