About Me


I enjoy meeting new people that are open minded and interested in learning and discovering new topics. I'm friendly and always wear a smile on my face, even on bad days. I enjoy going out in downtown Charleston & Folly Beach; where I hang out at bars drinking Yuengling & Wine (not together- that would be gross). I am open to trying new types of foods... and find that one of my favorite things in life is eating!!
I spend my days listening to music and practicing piano. I love going to shows and seeing local bands as well as well known artists. As you may notice I am a huge Tori Amos fan and have been since about 1992, when I received Little Earthquakes by mistake from Columbia House. That one little mistake changed my life. Without her music, I'm not sure where I would be today, she has been such an intricle part on my "formative years".
I enjoy travel, whether it be a day trip or a cross country flyover. I have been to Europe four times and anticipate my next trip!! It's a passion of mine to explore other cultures and rituals, I read endlessly about Western European history and am easily sucked into documentaries I find at the library about past Kings & Queens in England.
I also have a wide interest in "The Holy Grail" (aka - the Magdalen). I started researching Mary Magdalen when I was in 11th grade and had to write a report on a religious figure from the bible. Since then I try and read what ever I can get my hands on. If you look in my BOOKS section you will see a number of recommended books that I have read and have changed my life.
