About Me

Just trying to make it happen. Make it all happen. Now.

My Interests

producing documentaries, traveling everywhere to meet everyone, reading, human rights issues, war zones, learning, running/exercise, coming up with new "great" ideas, laughing hysterically about all those ideas, planning extravagant parties for friends and family, boating, doing just about anything I haven't done before, writing poems--super silly and somewhat serious, coming up with New Yorker cartoons that should always be published but will never be submitted, palindromes, being around people who say 'yes! and!' instead of 'yeah, but," photo albums, making awesome meatballs, eating awesome meatballs, spontaneity, giving the people I care about opportunities to experience new things, hanging out with Dennis, making sure my tent sees out to the stars and my five-star hotel has a spa, celebrating memories, eating ocean water-steamed lobsters on the beach at least once a year. Stay tuned for my dream band and book club: the Chinese Hamster Ovaries and Momo Madness, respectively.
