About Me

I'm a person who likes to have a good time, but also works hard. I don't want to spend my life "working for the man", so early retirement (like as soon as possible/feasible) is definitely the main goal. As of this year, I now work as a project manager for a large land developer, and so far, its been a great career move. My co-workers are just as crazy as I am, so its a great mix.
I'm college educated with a civil engineering degree. I've attempted to be apart of the few people who use their degree as part of their career, even though there's no way to make civil engineering sound interesting to "non-engineers". I am planning on going back for my MBA... always the career student!
I love to travel, and I've covered most of the US, Mexico, and Eastern Europe. Costa Rica, Australia, and Greece are on the top of the list for the next places to go as soon as I get some funding. Outdoorsy activities come as a close second as to what I like to do in my free time (when I have it).. I'm learning how to wakeboard this summer with my newly met co-workers.. and this fall is when I'll take up snowboarding.. Hiking and camping are fun too (anyone seen Troop Beverly Hills??), but I'm a city girl at heart.
I love the simple things in life that make me laugh... I love to plan "spontaneous" activities... I'm in love with love itself, but enjoy the single life... Life is random, go with it or get out of the way..
