accept what you cannot change...and work your hardest at changing what you can.

About Me

i can be the perfect stranger. i love food, but pancakes, ice cream and cookies are my favorites. i hum like there's no tomorrow and i laugh loud. i'm addicted to knowledge, plants, music & vinyl, and eating when i'm not hungry.

be the change that you want to see in the world.-mahatma ghandi

the most important thing in life to learn is to give out love and to let it come in.-m.s.

My Interests

food. music. people. art. plants. sunrises. gardening. baking. hummingbirds and penguins. cherry blossoms and gardenias. phonographs. the true beauty of analog sound. vinyl. mojitos and sangria. sunny days, cloudy days, rainy days. the feeling of wax on my fingertips. free time, inbetween time, ME time. anything purple. feelgood textures. cookies. travelling. photography. trader joe's hummus. creating new spaces. the fresh smell of paint...mmmm.

I'd like to meet:

people that can dance all night long. people that don't mind holding up the wall with me. people that can hold an intellectual conversation. people that don't mind not talking at all. anyone that can beat my record of knowing how to make nine different types of pancakes. doers. thinkers. people that give genuine hugs.

Music:

anything with an ounce of soul in it.

Movies:

science of sleep. the royal tenenbaums. lust, caution. little miss sunshine. garden state. eternal sunshine. the edukators. the tiger and the snow. stranger than fiction. sunshine. amelie, happenstance, or anything else with audrey tatou.

Television:

i like to think sometimes that i live inside a 40x40" box and maybe if i can just learn how to climb out of this thing...

Books:

if i can escape down this hole, don't let there be a bottom... let me fall down the rabbit hole and chase a rabbit while i'm at it.

Heroes:

the students that i work with. ordinary people that live extraordinary lives.
