About Me

I'm passionate about many things: my car, my cats, my sewing machine, FABRIC, costume history, sleep, faith, friends, fairies, food, black and white photography, driving at night with the sunroof open, watching movies I love over and over again, and honesty. One of my legs is longer than the other. I've got so many phobias they come out of my ears. I've been to more weddings than most people attend in an entire lifetime. I bake like no one's business, but can't really cook worth a damn. I don't really want to have kids. I want to go to Europe by the time I'm 30. I was taller than all but one of the basketball players on my high school's varsity team. I went on my first date at the age of 22. I never really felt like I fit in with anyone until I became a theatre major. I'm determined to be truly content with who I am by the time I start my next job and I can't wait to see what happens next.a

I'd like to meet:
