About Me

I have a theatre degree from UC Irvine, work at The Old Globe Theatre appropriately, and I live a little too close to Mexico in a cute cottage. I watch good movies, explore new places, go dancing, go out to bars and downtown SD, relax in the mountains, and drive at night while listening to mood music. Not simultaneously. I've been known to watch the occasional re-run of The X-Files, Six Feet Under, Carnivale, and Twin Peaks. I like the mountains, the beach, thunderstorms, and pie.
