About me:

.. .. .. .. ..

Ever the hopeful romantic, the knight in slacker armor, my heart's on my sleeve. Am up for anything. What you see is what you get with me, a blunt and brutal optimist; the glass is always half full!


A former east coaster that was always a west coast dreamer. Kid at heart, my eyes are wide open! Love animals; yet the robotic minds of insects vex me... Am passionate about things in my life; art, writing, music, friends/family are some of these. Loyal, sometimes intense, I give a damn about things; the state of mind and of the world.


Yet am kind, honest, articulate, individualistic, highly communicative, and easy going. A very kind and young soul; my naive eyes are wide open. 5 things I cannot live without; a wifi connection, my MacBook and iPhone, art supplies and someone to love...cereal would have to be number 6.

Who I'd like to meet:

.. .. ..

Someone smart, fierce, vocal, unassuming, a challenge, keeping me on my toes, sexy, strong, unconventional, independent, someone kind, quirky. Pretty on the inside and out. Honest, trustworthy and communicative are biggies. Confident, bold, and real. I Feel so limited by putting down a list of things! I'm very open and find beauty in all kinds of ways. Someone who appreciates the simple things. To enjoy the company of another, a talk, a movie, a walk. Someone who can stand being with a hopeless romantic and a gentleman. Sorry for the ones who like the bad boys. A butterfly in the tummy, a flush to the face. Ever the romantic and a writer; I could go on...What have I learned? Still learning. Still trying. To not to take things for granted.
