About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To live life, have fun and see the world!

ABOUT ME

I like to shake my booty, ride my bike, scuba dive, learn things, read books, eat/cook good food, drink good beer, salsa dance, take photos, sit on my porch swing, play games, shoot guns, climb trees, daydream in the sun....

PHILOSOPHY

love yourself, love life, try not to get bogged down with "what if"s, and find the positive in each experience!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hmmm....i really really enjoyed scuba diving in the ocean for the first time. it's a whole new world down there. the creatures are fascinating and the ocean depths seem like infinity.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about butterflies and maybe some spanish?
