I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

That's a loaded question...it should be "what I want you to know about me", the rest you'll figure out after its too late! haha!I'm an environmental studies major,I'm fascinated with anything pertaining to science, energy, ecology, pollution, recycling and waste reduction, botony, mycology, toxicology, alternative fuels, policy, etc...I get bored easily,the bizarre intrigues me, the novel amuses me,and I haven't time for anything else.

My Interests

I love to hike, my puppy dogs, expanding my garden, composting, getting dirty, talking with people about interesting topics, dancing, laughing, making beautiful and useful things, fantasizing about living on a farm off the grid, gourmet cooking, sprouting seeds,avocados, watching things grow.
