About me:
I love everything and anything to do with dance. It's my passion in life, and I spend hours a day devoting myself to it (lol). I have a wonderful loving and supportive husband who is in the Army National Guard and a beautiful (and active) 7 month old son, Ian.
I grew up in New Hampshire, but this past June (after getting married) moved to Maryland, where I am still trying to get used to where everything is and the TRAFFIC.
After having my son 7 months ago, I am now hoping to get back into performing again, and hope to start up our old dance company once more, The Celtic Gypsies (www.celticgypsies.com). Eventually I'd like to open a studio and devote myself to dance full-time. In the meantime, I am a Stay-At-Home mom, which certainly is a job in itself!
I have a bunch of awesome, artistic and crazy (like me) friends in the music/dance world, who I couldn't live without and miss dearly, as well as an awesome family who I miss so much (Love you Lauren!)
I *strongly* dislike people who are hypocrites, fakes, preppies, drama queens, and liars. I can't stand drama and will have nothing to do with it. I will stand by those I care about no matter what, and I HATE saying goodbye. I believe that hard work and perseverance pay off; I will work hard for what I truly want and know I will one day get it. :0)
Slainte!

Who I'd like to meet:
I am friends with all sorts of people, from all walks of life, so it doesn't really matter to me... but musicians, dancers, other artists and designers, as well as other moms interested in more "natural" living, fitness and organic eating. :0)
