About Me

Elementary school teacher turned financial analyst turned high school math teacher. On here to find new artists and to have a different way to keep in touch with friends - both physical and electronic. I'm a travelaholic... I've been all over the world and am not even close to finishing my check list or satisfying my need to BE...I believe that pinky swears are binding, rock worms exist, and that fresh air and laughter can be as soul-finding as any therapy... Dance and music make my spirit soar. I'm as happy hanging out by myself as I am with a large group of like-minded people all doing something we enjoy. My work does not define me, even though I do love my job... ..

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Interesting and unique people with a sense of adventure and spontenaity to hang out with, learn from, share with, have fun with. Always looking for travel partners and people to sit and talk about any and everything with over hot coffee, cold beer, or a fruity martini. Integrity, honesty, and responsibility make people worthy. Appreciate the simple things life has to offer, and embrace them... Treat others as you'd like to be treated. Simple. (And you!)
