To not forget to enjoy the little things like a speck in someone's tooth who is being rude, a squirrel enjoying an acorn, a lonely street musician's attire, the fashion of a new land, and the details of a story that means something to you.

Interests

I am one of the fortunate people who gets to do what they love and are passionate about for a career. I work as a social worker in St. Paul. I enjoy a good embarrassing story, as I have many to offer as well. I like to see the goofball side of people, over a cup of coffee, beer, soda what have you. I like embracing a new cultural experience when given the opportunity. I like to jam and dance to a good tune... but mostly I love to travel and hear of other people's experiences.
