I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a Scorpio, so I can be described as Loyal, Passionate, Resourceful, Observant, Dynamic, Competitive, Ambitious, Persistent and Determined.
I moved to Seattle about 5 years ago and love everything about it! I work at a non-profit diabetes research institute, and try to get out and enjoy life as much as possible.

My Interests

MUSIC!! Anything that has to do with motorcycles, My VW, The great Pacific Northwest outdoors, Happy hour with friends, Enjoying really good food, Cooking, Camping, Hiking, Running at Greenlake, Discovering or learning something new, Meeting fun and interesting new people, Adventure or 'action' sports [I HATE THE TERM 'EXTREME SPORTS'] (snowboarding, mountain biking, skateboarding, wakeboarding, kayaking, skydiving, bungee jumping), Sushi, Ice Cream, Good movies, Being out in the snow in the middle of the night, Tattoos, BBQs, Checking out live bands (rock, punk, and indie shows).
