About Me

I'm an artist with many paint brushes, pencils, pens, musical notes, penned lines, cut glass, and rehearsed scenes. I am always attracted to the avante garde and love to be among other creative types.

My Interests

Acting, the beach, rock climbing, SCUBA diving, hiking, caving (although it has been forever now), BBQ, jazz night clubs, the 1920s Era, old cars, event planning, photograghy, painting, exotic animals, and just getting outside and enjoying nature.

I'd like to meet:

I'd love to get back in touch with friends from the past and meet new people who share a passion for film, animals, and photography.

Music:

I can't stand listening to one type of music all day long so I make these mix CDs of my fave songs. Bowling for Soup's "Girl All the Bad Guys Want" is almost always on the mix as well as, "Get the Party Started" by Pink (my personal theme song and motto), "Black Hole Sun", "Champagne Supernova", "Meet Virginia", and most older songs by Hootie. I also love jazz and blues. If I had the voice for it, I could have seen myself as a blues singer hanging out with Ella , Billy, and all the other greats.

Movies:

After working at AFI Film Festival this year, I'm just so happy to see all types of films. I'm especially fond of films that empower the their audience.

Television:

I LOVE BONES! The Office, Planet Earth, House, CSI, and all those other forensic shows.

Books:

Any book on Sumi brush painting, biographies, origins of words or people, and many other topics.

Heroes:

Those who stand up for what is right even when it isn't easy. I'm also amazed by the men and women who have lost so much and continue to live positively. I want to surround myself by those kinds of people.
