About Me

Create your own Friend Quiz hereMy Perfect Day - December 16, 2006
I'm from San Diego, but have lived in Los Angeles since 1994. Married since 1996 to the man I love more today than I did when I thought he was perfect.
I am happy, I am blessed. I have two gorgeous boys (see my pics). My husband, Bradley and I met in acting class. He is a dancer, streetdancing/hip hop and I started taking his classes when we met. I then performed with him and assisted him. I got to do some cool gigs dancing on TV on shows like Ally McBeal and Sparks. I danced in a music video and lots of stage shows with Bradley and our group we formed called the Groovaloos. I got pregnant with our first son in 2000, so I stopped dancing and became a full time mom. I was able to use my graphic design degree to help with promotion and web design, tshirts etc. to get our dance group off and running.
Today we have a corporation, Groovaloos, Inc., which I pretty much run. We sell instructional DVDs, hats, what have you... I get to still stay with my kids (one is in Kindergarten, the other just born in Jan '06), but I do my work when he sleeps. I definitely feel I have a blessed life.
My joys in life are being with my family. Raising our two sons. I get to hang out with young, amazing, talented, brilliant dancers. I've gotten to travel through Bradley's work to Hawaii twice, Japan, Puerto Rico, New York, and all over Canada.
My friends tell me I am funny and I should be acting... the funny thing about that is that I came to terms a long time ago that the thing I wanted most was to watch my children grow and be there for them. I absolutely get a thrill out of entertaining my friends and making them laugh. I have NO DESIRE or need to put my face in front of a camera. I am doing what God has planned for me and there is NOTHING better than that.
I am very happy, very fortunate, and I love what I do. More about me in my blogs!

My Interests

I do love my kids sooooooooo ridiculously much. I LOVE being their mom and I LOVE God for loaning them to me while they are on this earth with me. I love people around me. My interests right now are raising two fine boys to be an asset to our society. To teach them love and compassion and all that good stuff.

I'd like to meet:

People who like to laugh and be silly.
People who deal with their issues.
People who love life and never say "I'm bored".
People who love God.
People who are genuine.

Music:

Good music.

Movies:

tell ya later...

Television:

The Office, SpongeBob, a bunch of competition shows I care not to list. I refuse to even get started with 24 because my husband did and now he is hidiously addicted. Hidious, I say!

Books:

Doctor Seuss, Some caterpillar book, another one about snakes, etc. OH, you mean books I like?

Heroes:

Jesus: He is Truth;
My husband: He is Motivation;
US Soldiers: They are Courage;
