About Me

I'm sociable. I like to meet new people and learn about different ways of life. I love to travel; I want to go everywhere and see everything possible. In the last year and a half, I bought a house, got married, adopted a (sweet! adorable!) puppy, and began a career in real estate. Exciting!

My Interests

etching glass, making cards, making anything really, reading, meeting people, speaking Spanish, helping people, learning things, touring houses, singing to myself, surprising people, traveling the world, salsa dancing (badly).

I'd like to meet:

People who care about people. People who travel, especially to South America. People who want to practice their Spanish. People who live life genuinely and intensely.
Also, people who want to buy or sell a home in Northwest Arkansas-- give me a call!
