About Me

Check out my portfolio
Facebook, of course
I'm only 23. I've got a lot to see.

Rock on.

The sky's not the limit.
(Picture courtesy of my awesome brother)
I'm a recent (not so recent anymore, but shhhh) college grad working as a copywriter at an ad agency in Ft. Lauderdale. I have long red hair and for that reason I can easily be spotted in a crowd of non-long-red-haired people. I love sports, a lot. I also love my family, my friends and my cats, Freddy and Willy. I enjoy mustard, maybe a bit too much.Going a bit deeper.. I am most definitely a Type B personality. I'm not very organized, but it doesn't bother me too often. I LOVE to laugh. It sounds cheesy, but I like to find at least one good thing about every situation or person I encounter. Keeps the blood pressure in check. Not that I have high blood pressure or anything. I tend to ramble. Is it noticeable?

My Interests

I love the Florida Gators.. If there is one place I belong in this world, it's sitting in the second row of the Rowdy Reptile section with my partner in crime. I miss that!
Rowdy Reptiles for life :)
And now that you know I'm completely nuts, here's what else I'm interested in: music (what is life without music?), flag football, frisbee, creating random ads, watching movies, taking pictures, spending time with family and friends, being national champions.My sports teams are: Florida Gators, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Phillies and Flyers Yes, I'm a Philly sports fan. I'm using to losing.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone and everyone with a sense of humor....And of course, someone who will buy me a giant trampoline. Did you really think I was going to give up on that?

Music:

thursday, flogging molly, shore thing, less than jake, thrice, tool, 7mary3, live, the police, tababooya, green day, simon & garfunkel, reel big fish, collective soul, the beatles, underoath, poison the well, incubus, nonpoint, pink floyd, deftones, steve miller band..... i love music of all kinds... but I have a special place in my heart for classic rock
I do not own an ipod.

Movies:

airplane, super troopers, wet hot american summer, braveheart, pirates of the caribbean, 28 days later, garden state, pulp fiction

Television:

Family Guy, Simpsons, Futurama, Scrubs, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Seinfeld reruns, The Office, The West Wing, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT (RIP)
Anytime there's a show about tornadoes, I'm glued to the TV. I'm the only person I know who likes the movie Twister.I've always wanted to be a storm chaser. Here's the catch: I'm deathly afraid of tornadoes. All of my nightmares involve tornadoes in some way.

Books:

Alas, Babylon, Angels and Demons, The Count of Monte Cristo, The Secret Life of Bees, She's Come Undone..... Someday I shall write my own.

Heroes:

my brother and my mom.. definitely 2 of my best friends

Christmas Crafts

In order to keep myself within a reasonable budget AND to keep the creative juices flowing, I decided to craft a good number of my Christmas gifts. I only have pictures of a few of them, but here's wh...

Confessions...

I confess... ...that I have a huge crush on Channel 5 weatherman Steve Weagle. In fact, I once saw him at the beach and yelled "Steve!" and then hid. ...that I am a BIG procrastinator. I swear I'll ...

In limbo

Please sir, may I have a loan?

So, after all this time of thinking I was going to move out of here, that I couldn't possibly afford to settle down here in South Florida, things have shifted. After climbing for what seemed like fore...

Am I the only person in the world....

...who thinks Dane Cook is NOT funny.. but is, in fact, annoying as hell? People out there, if you agree (or even disagree) by all means, speak up and give me your opinion.

A many splendored thing....

Yes, I am indeed talking about "love". I think it's probably the most confusing concept that exists on this earth. That's right, its confusion out-weighs even theories on particle physics when it come...

Adjustments

Adjusting to my new life is a slow but sure process. It's not exactly what I imagined it to be. I'm tired most of the time and my free time has slipped away to almost... none! That is by far the harde...

Life after college

Well honestly, it's weird to no longer be in college. Graduation was pretty awesome, nice and short (less than 2 hours) and I goofed off with Kristen and Lindsey for the last time. My parents were up ...
