I have an extra backbone and it's called L6

About Me

i go to school here in the hopes of purusing a career in global public health and human rights or doing something meaningful that i haven't yet discovered. before returning to school i lived in LA for almost three years making movies by accident. before that, i was an eccentric and odd girl from Rochester, NY who graduated highschool at age 16 without any direction and with many miscellaneous creative interests. that's my life story in three sentences. now it's as though you and i have attended the same mildly entertaining party and exchanged "what do you do"s. now let's get to the good stuff.

My Interests

(perception, the big picture, the little picture, and the frames in between.)

I'd like to meet:

i'm not out to meet anyone. i like all sorts of people. usually they are dynamic and have depth.

Music:

pixies breeders kristin hersh gillian welch the anders sisters etta james muddy waters kim deal (noise from my piano) tom waits mary timony the list is endless for us, no?

Movies:

Titles are stored on the shelves in my brain where the self-adhesive liner is curling at the corners.

Television:

i like tv when it gives me an excuse to sit quietly with people i enjoy, but mostly i hate it.

Books:

start where you are

Heroes:

one night stand turned affair

insomnia coming back around like a lonely ex. just this once turns into habit. habit rules your days with sleepless nights; leaves you reeling.
