About Me

I'm happy. I'm a transplanted surfer/snowboarder from Michigan who now lives in Atlanta. I didn't think I would like living in the South, because it's so far from the beach & the slopes, but I do like it. I am fortunate to be able to travel to the beach and mountains for work. It is hard to meet cool peeps in this big city becasue I travel so often. So I opened an art gallery here in town. Now, when I return from traveling there's always a party or art show at the gallery. It's a great way to have fun & meet interesting people.

My Interests

Besides the obvious of Surfing & Snowboarding (Once you have met you will understand) Here are some of my other interests, I like to meet new people and listen to their stories. I love traveling and experiencing new places. I like Buildings, Landscapes, Restaurants, Nightlife, Concerts and local hangouts/dives. I like bonfires and chilling as much as I like to dance & party. I love life and I want to see and do as many things that I can before my life ends. I like to participate in any sport that utilizes a sideways stance on a board, Surfing, Snowboarding Skating, Kitesurfing, Wind Surfing, and Wakeboarding. I also like to mountain bike, play hockey, golf, sail, and play tennis and soccer. For the sports I like to watch, they are all the same board sports as listed above. The number one sport I like to watch is Hockey. I'm a Redwings fan from Michigan. Now that I live here in Atlanta, I may some day cheer for the Thrashers. I also enjoy watching some car racing. F1, Lemans, & Rally only. Turning your car only to the left is lame. However, NASCAR is great to fall asleep to. I like to travel and sometimes camp. I like to camp at beaches, deserts, and on mountains. I like to visit the forests but I don't like bugs, so camping there is not one of my favorite things to do. blah blah blah. just meet me & we'll talk.

I'd like to meet:

You.

Music:

I like music from the 80's the most. Rock, punk, glam rock, new wave, ska, rap. I also like some of the 70's Rock n Roll and Disco & even some 60's hippy sing along songs. Actually I enjoy all sorts of music. I like Techno, Drum & Bass, and House. All the recent Euro/Indy/Garage bands sound great too. I like music. I wish I would take the time to learn how to play an instrument

Movies:

I love watching movies. I think that some of the recent films suck. Hollywood seems to rely to much on computer generated action instead of acting. Movies I will watch again again & again are Alfred Hitchcock films. Slap Shot, Blazing Saddles, Starship Troopers, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Napoleon Dynamite, Trainspotting, old war movies, Star Wars & Lord of the Rings films, most sci-fi films, City of God, and any surf or snowboard film.

Television:

Hockey. I only have the rabbit ears so I do not watch much TV. I would rather rent a movie. If I do watch TV I would watch the Simpsons, or something on PBS.

Books:

They write books about movies don't they?

Heroes:

My parents (because), Jesus Christ (died for our sins), Craig Kelly (pioneer snowboarder), Laird Hamilton (champion surfer), David Hasslehoff (proving that a dork can be cool), Lance Armstrong (even with 1 nut he has more balls than most men), Jen Tiilikka-Birdsall (Thank you for opening my heart)

My Blog

Jen,
