I change my mind as often as I change my hair. I think life is about spontaneity. I don't believe there is such a thing as closed doors, just an infinite amount of open windows.
I am an addicted traveler, I have been to so many beautiful places, the top of my list being: Venice, Tenerife, and, Reykjavik. I plan to keep traveling. I love snowboarding in the winter, and wake boarding in the summer. I rock clime, though admittedly not very well. I have danced since I was little and preformed with a Russian Ballet Company. I am crazy about art, and frequent many museums. I am up for adventures as the drop of a hat, but I never underestimate time spent alone with a great book. I graduated with a degree in Psychology, and a Minor in Russian. Graduate school is in my near future for Social Psychology, or somewhere along those lines. I also spent a semester in London studying Psychology and Photography, which is one of my great loves and passions. It also happens to be one of the things I do. I own Pinxit Photography: www.pinxitphotography.com. I am also a teacher at Alta Vista Center for Autism, there's never a dull moment, and I am so crazy about those amazing kids! I love what I do. What could be better then working with children, and seeing someone smile every day!

My Interests


I love long walks on the beach... Joking, but I really do love that. I snowboard, wakeboard, rock climb, watch movies, go dancing, read, travel, get into ridiculously hilarious mishaps, and spend time with my amazing friends. If you know me really well, I am actually a really big goof-ball, completely directionally dyslexic, and always late! :-D

I'd like to meet:

Those who will go bungee jumping with me in the Grand Canyon, who will surf the sand dunes, and rock on the snow (or at least try). I want to meet people who have read everything from Hemingway to J.K. Rowling to Dr. Dyer. I love people that can make me laugh, and light up a room with their presence. I like it when someone is down to earth but dreams big. I love people who are benevolent and humble, who would travel with me on a whim. I believe that life is what you make it, and that “Where Intention Goes, Energy Flows”. I like people with little drama, and who make lemonade out of life’s lemons. I am an avid traveler and have been to over 20 countries, I want to meet people who will see the rest 174 with me. I live in Colorado because we have 300 days of sunshine.Thanks to my travels, I have made so many wonderful friends around the world, and like Merry said: If you are reading this, I probably miss you! I wold love to meet Stella Im Hultberg and Audrey Kawasaki, their work is amazing!

On Love

I believe that real love is the most powerful constituent in life. I think that love should never be desperate or despondent. I don't believe in the kind of forlorn love where you can't live without e...

Leafy Hollows

Spinning webs of stolen sunlight, They roll dull spindles of opaque air.They sit and wait in leafy hollows In silent hymn to their despair.As gray dusk falls the leaves start shaking,They twitch and t...
