About Me

Accurately describing myself in this limited space seems somewhat impossible. I'm 26, married, bi-pedal, 78% water, living in Chicago, just completed a Masters in Arts Management (the business side of arts organizations)

Things I love: music, almost any kind, art, theatre, going out, staying in, laughing, animals (not in a weird way), being a girly girl, and being one of the guys...

First and foremost I swear allegiance to the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. Despite our geographical differences, y'all are still the best friends a girl could ask for. Even if you're all drunken idiots.

I'm pretty sure at this point Diet Coke runs through my veins instead of blood...

I have a penchant for being entirely inappropriate, in any given situation. I consider myself an equal opportunity offender...

I grew up in the weird and wacky world of the theatre, and find myself incapable of eluding its grasp, despite my many efforts to "get a real job"....

In my next life, I'd like to come back as either: a) garlic mashed potatoes b) a cat c) Aretha Franklin or d) Jessica Simpson because that rack is just out of control.

I love Chicago but often find myself missing the ocean, orange blossoms, Congress Park, DA's, and Skidmore simultaneously.
