About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling around the world at the moment but look forward to hosting!

ABOUT ME

I love all types of cultural experiences and people of all ages and walks of life. I enjoy volunteering and helping others solve problems. I am polite, kind and respectful and appreciate a good laugh, especially if the joke is on me. I have a wonderful sense of humor and smile from the inside out.

My family and friends usually characterize me as happy, kind, gentle, generous, honest, outgoing, friendly, neat, focused, loyal, organized, sincere and empathetic to the needs of others. I am a good listener and I would appreciate hearing your fascinating stories, if you would like to share them with me.

Although I am a none smoker and I prefer none alcoholic beverages, I enjoy socializing and I fit in well at parties, clubs, sports, celebrity galas and beer & wine tasting events. I am very comfortable with beer lovers like my dad, brother and uncles! Bartenders and Beer lovers make the party come alive with FUN! The life of the party is an understatement- Having good music and a good bartender can Rock the House!

I enjoy taking pictures and dancing. Being a photographer was dream come true. Since 2007, I have been a full time business owner & entertainment marketing consultant. Of course I love every minute of my new dream job! Traveling is 50-75% of my work. I am helpful and resourceful and would like to network with you.

I am patient with people with learning disabilities, physical challenges and social insecurities. I take pride in trying to encourage the shy and introvert to have fun. I feel that anything can be accomplished through teamwork.

I enjoy meeting new & amazing people and learning about different cultures. I consider that all individuals are special to me and have something terrific to share with others! I know it would be a pleasure to meet YOU and I look forward to visiting!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy!

I am too blessed to be stress!

Don't sweat the small stuff and even an elephant problem, can
look small to someone else with the right knowledge and tools.

Adversity PLUS+ Opportunity = PROMOTION, So go for GOLIATH!

Music, Movies, and Books

I really enjoy all types of music! I like comedy and drama movies the best. Self help books are my favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a complete auto body repair job on my car.

Although I am an excellent and cautious driver, I once slide on black ice. The crash left a large dent on the front of my car. The auto repair company wanted $2500 to take a simple dent out of my car so I did it myself, although I absolutely knew nothing about auto body work.

I performed the auto body repair with the help of some knowledgeable volunteers to my entire car for under $500.00. I spray painted the color, clear coat and even put the fiber glass on the rusted medal. It took 4 weeks of sanding the paint off and a week to cure the fresh paint. I amazed my boss and co-workers, including Myself!

Teach, Learn, Share

Love is a universal language that all individuals appreciate.

I would love to learn a new language and travel to exotic and tropical locations. Although I also enjoy the many adventures of cold climate locations, I fair better if I experience them in the spring and summer.

I enjoy sharing volunteer opportunities around the world that cultivate and create a lasting friendship of respect, admiration and beneficial projects.
