About Me

I'm a triplet who's fluent in German (my heritage is mainly Austrian and Cherokee). I graduated from Northern Illinois University with a B.F.A. in Theatre Design and Technology and a minor in Communications (media studies). Some days I'm a night person, while others I am a morning person. My current home is Hawai'i where I'm getting a Master of Fine Arts in Theatre Design and Technology. Some randomness: I love puppetry, cheese, peanut butter, anything Reeses, and thunderstorms! Italian is the next language I want to learn. Then perhaps Japanese. I'm an avid fan of fairy tale theory (yes, I'm being serious). I wish I had more time to play video games. I struggle with an illness called Rhematoid Arthritis but it doesn't stop me from pursuing my dreams. Secretly, I've contemplated becoming a firefighter. I am a lacto ovo vegetarian and have been one since I was young. I want more than anything to travel the world (Italy, Austria, New Zealand, Japan, etc.) or to be a Disney Imagineer. It would rock hardcore to design and build for a creature shop (film or theatre). I collect TMNT stuff. One of my life goals is to hold a koala. The color green makes me happy. I enjoy watching Conan O' Brian and I am a fan of skater shoes. It would be awesome if spring or fall actually still existed as seasons. I choose Coke and the BK Lounge over Pepsi and McDonalds. I don't like to fail. Some people call me M or Cozza. I've also been referred to as Munchkin, Issa, Missy, Meltown, and Mackerann (to name a few). I'm head over heels for the most amazing man EVER, who I love more than life itself (heart you JLEbean). If you want to know more, just ask. :op I don't bite!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Walt Disney. Criss Angel. Julie Taymor. Jim Henson. Michael Curry. Tim Burton. Freddie Mercury. And pretty much anyone willing to pursue their dreams.

Music:

I'm eclectic, but if you want to know specifics, just ask. As long as the instrumentals and vocals rock, I'm game.

Movies:

I can't even begin to list these. Let's just say I'm into the artsy stuff and action flicks, with the occasional romantic comedy. :op Boondock Saints is probably the closest thing I have to a "favorite."

Books:

Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Demian, Angels and Demons, pretty much any children's book

Heroes:

ambitious people and my loved ones
