The greatest joy you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return

About Me

I'm a performer/musician at the core, but still have my day job with a non-profit call TechSoup Stock - www.techsoup.com/stock. Primarily a chanteuse, I have been tap dancing for a large part of my life and have ten years of piano training under my belt. Currently an understudy with Beach Blanket Babylon -www.beachblanketbabylon.com, I'm also a burlesque performer by the name of Alotta Boutté - www.myspace.com/alotta
I'm a nerd at heart. I enjoy the occasional Sci-Fi like anyone else and geek out on things like Star Wars. I enjoy a good movie and fantastic performances, or something so bad it's good. I love live theater. I like to act up and act out with my friends. I sing and dance along with music playing in stores. I randomly break out in song at any given point in time anywhere. I love to share a dance out of the blue with my girlfriend while we walk down the street. I try to find tremendous joy and appreciation in little things; like a sweet kiss in the morning, finding a rocking color of fringe at a discount, the yellow and black butterfly that flitted nest to me as I walked home yesterday, the joy on my friend's face as she enjoys her new relationship, vibrant colors, particularly in some sort of floral configuration, having conversations in movie quotes, sunlight peeking through the top of blinds in the morning, feeling it's warmth as I ride my bike on an empty Market Street in the morning.

My Interests

music, friends, dance, kinky folks, freaks, performers, straight forward folks, storytellers

Listening to Sly and the Family Stone right now. God bless Sly. Just saw EWF in concert - for those that don't know EWF = Earth, Wind, and Fire and SEE THEM LIVE! One of the most amazing performance you'll ever see and every last member of this band is a musician in the truest sense of the word.

I'd be here forever trying to list....I'm down with nearly everytype
