I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Well, I'm goofy and love to make people smile. People think I'm serious, but once I warm up, watch out! I have two dogs...a 2 1/2 year old shepard/border collie mix named Princess Fiona and 1 year old Australian Shepherd mutt named Baxter. I love holidays and special occasions...I go all out, especially doing the Christmas stockings...love to fill them with weird stuff...my family doesn't think it's as funny as I do. I worked in radio doing events, promotions and marketing for 8 years, then for the last year I was working in the non-profit world doing major fundraising events for the Phoenix Zoo. In late June I relocated to Boulder City and worked for the Goodwill corporate offices doing events and marketing...BUT, I was offered an amazing opportunity, and I am now running the Boulder City Hospital Foundation doing Art in the Park and a bunch of other fun projects and community relations. I have an amazing fiance...we dated for years when we were younger, became friends again late last year, and now we are together...it's funny how destiny works...I'm amazed. We are getting married on Memorial Day weekend...woo hoo!

My Interests

I enjoy reading, baking cookies, cooking, weekend getaways, hanging out with my family, and I am a total TV addict. I love my puppies, and train with them as much as possible. I also LOVE the Pacific Northwest...my favorite moment would be sitting in a jacuzzi on the beach in Oregon, looking out at the ocean while it rained...it was incredible...I highly recommend it. Disneyland is awesome too...I never get sick of Space Mountain and the Indiana Jones ride. Yes, I am a dork.

I'd like to meet:

I would love to meet Mrs. Fields (her cookies are so good!) or Albert Einstein, but that's not going to happen...and I would love to see my Grandpa Bill again, but that's also impossible. I moved back to my hometown of Boulder City, Nevada in June 2007, and would love to re-connect with old high school and college friends.

Music:

I LOVE The Fray, Angels & Airwaves, Tool, NIN, David Gray, Sarah McLachlan, Goo Goo Dolls, Live, Frau Frau, Sneaker Pimps, Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, The Smiths, Jonny Lang, New Order, Blue October, Bare Naked Ladies, Fleetwood Mac, Tori Amos, Blink 182 and many more. I'm kind of an 80's music geek as well. I adore old R&B...it's embarrassing, so don't tell anyone PLEASE.

Movies:

I'm a huge John Hughes fan...where did he go? I like anything with John Cusak, Jack Black and Hugh Grant...chick flick heaven, baby. Horror movies are so fun to watch...did you see the Descent...wow! Oh, and 300 was awesome...so beautifully done...amazing! The Muppet movies, Shrek and Finding Nemo are also awesome! Again, I'm such a dork...

Television:

It's so lame, but I love TV, and I think I have definitely lost some brain cells because of it. I watch ER, Project Runway, Men in Trees, Amazing Race and much more. Pathetic, I know...DVR's did this to me, and I need help.

Books:

I like the Betty Crocker Cookbook, Helen Fielding, Maeve Binchy, Marian Keyes, Jane Green, and on the opposite end of the spectrum, Dean Koontz. Mindless British novels are the best for me. I think everyone should read the Celestine Prophecy at least once...let me know what you think. For those who are a little more bold, try Anais Nin. You learn something from every book, that's my motto.

Heroes:

I like a lot of the things that Oprah does for people. I may not agree with her 100% of the time, but I respect her. My oldest friends and my family are my hereos because they would do anything for me, and have...it humbles me to think of how lucky I am to have such great friends and family.
