About Me

Honesty is very important to me. I can't stand people who lie. I'm opinionated.
Please check out the: Breast Cancer Action (BCA) website. BCA is a great organization, you can take action and donate money to help the cause! I did an internship there and am a loyal supporter of their work. My favorite teacher in college was a board member of BCA before she died of breast cancer.
I identify as poly-bisexual. Poly, being short for polyamorous (many loves). I think there are three kinds of people in this world: monogamous folks, polyamorous folks and people who cheat and lie.
Become a friend of the: India Basin Neighborhood Association (IBNA). Individual membership is only $10 for the whole year and it's only $25 for business members (and you get listed on our website)!
Please DO NOT buy animals from breeders! There are millions of animals in shelters who need homes and most of these animals will be killed if they are not adopted. Breeders simply contribute the overpopulation problem for their own greedy profit. To learn more about responsible animal adoption, please visit: ASPCA .
I believe in full disclosure and helping people learn things they should already know. I have herpes. Have you ever had a cold sore? Guess what, thatâ€™s herpes! According to the ASHA website: "About 50 to 80 percent of American adults have oral herpes, which is commonly called cold sores or fever blisters. About one in four adults in the United States has genital herpes. However, most people don't know they are infected because their symptoms are too mild to notice or mistaken for another condition." To learn more about herpes, please visit this site: ASHA
Looking for a great place to have some wine and eat a yummy meal? Look no further. My cousin Vega opened this wonderful wine bar in Bernal Heights: VinoRosso. Enjoy! Please tell her Tori sent ya.
Some other final thoughts: recycle, do nice things for strangers, adopt a pet from the SFSPCA , adopt a child, wash your hands and don't forget to smile.
