Start believing in your dreams and others will catch the fever

About Me


My name is Natalie and I was originally born in L.A. and raised in Fresno, California. I moved to the Chicagoland area in September 2000 to pursue a new career after being laid off by my company in California. I created this page so that I can network with other Dodgers, Lakers, Bears, UCLA, and Fresno State fans (and sports fans in general, if you're nice and you don't bash my Dodgers! LOL).
As you can see, I am one of the biggest Dodger fans around. Unlike most girls, I love sports and I hate shopping! LOL
As you can see, I'm a huge sports fan...the LOS ANGELES DODGERS are my favorite team of all!
In addition to speaking English as my native language, I'm fluent in Japanese, some German and Spanish. I hope to use my language and sports recruitment skills to pursue a lifelong dream of working for the Los Angeles Dodgers organization someday!

My Interests



My favorite sports to watch are baseball (pro) and basketball (college and pro). I enjoy watching other sports too (like volleyball, football, hockey, etc.), but I don't understand those sports as well. Baseball, as you can see, by far is my favorite. I have been a die-hard Dodger fan since they were in the World Series in 1981.

My favorite teams:

I'd like to meet:


Fellow Dodgers, Lakers, Bears, UCLA, and Fresno State fans, other baseball and sports fans, AND MOST OF ALL...any of the Los Angeles Dodgers (present players, coaches/managers, or retired ones)...they are all my heroes!
