About Me

I am 1/2 Navajo, 1/4 Dakota Sioux, and 1/4 Norwegian.. My name Shandiin is a Navajo name; it means when the sun is behind the clouds and you can see the sun rays coming through...sunshine I enjoy magical mystery tours under starlit skies. Music and art are the reasons i get up in the morning... I also enjoy nature, books, sewing, making jewelry, architecture, art history, photography, humor and laughter, intelligence, and meaning....I like to surround myself with positive people...friends and family are extremely important to me!I live in Minneapolis, MN and am attending the U. My major is in "Biology, Society, and the Environment" with the intention of going into architecture, particularly green architecture. I've also thought about opening my own business... oh yea, i also want to live in a treehouse. so if there is someway that i can be a green architect, a business owner, an artist, a tree dweller, a mother (someday), a wife (perhaps), and a good person~ i am all about it!! I am trying to find out what my role in my life is.. and I am having a pretty good time on the way!!
