About Me


Click Here to Share Your Music

I'm an optimist to a fault, and I am insanely curious about life, death, and all the mental, emotional and spiritual states of existance in between. I am especially fascinated with how and why we get sick, and therefore how and why we heal. I just graduated from Acupuncture/ Chinese Medicine School in San Francisco, and I'm preparing for the State Board Exam currently. I live in San Fran with my love, Jarrod and my two cats, Miles and Linus. Right now I'm a big nerd spending all my time studying.my other site will be ready soon www.acuphoria.com (I'm working on it now)To the right, the song that is untitled is Heartbeats, by the Knife (check out their intoxicating video below.."Pass it on")...and the Plaid song is a remix of Bjork's song "All is Full of Love" that I think is the most amazing song in the world.

My Interests

Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, Reiki, Health and Healing, Metaphysics, Shiatsu, Art, Japanese Prints, Dancing even though I'm not supposed to right now!!! HE HE. Did I mention lots of dancing. If it wasn't for this crutch right now I'd battle you. Other things I cherish; books about bridging science and spirit, logic puzzles 4 kicks(I can't lie..I love em)

I'd like to meet:

People who think "The State" is as close to comedy perfection as you can get. People who are introspective, curious, funny, and who are moved by good jazz, an amazing beat, and a thoughtful MC like SAGE Fucking Francis! People who break into a HUGE smile when they see someone dancing with style.... I especially love meeting people who are passionate about learning, who are not afraid of wielding their intellect.. expanding their mental boundaries.....and who are kind enough that they use their intelligence to inspire.

It is 12:13am of the new day...and I can only hope that when I wake up in the morning, the very lazy people of virginia have mustered the spirit to find an answer to the question on everyone's mind......
