CURRENT MISSION

To see what there is to see and do what there is to do...

ABOUT ME

I've lived on the left coast (NorCal, and now the PNW) for most of my life, with short jaunt to the right coast (NYC) for a couple of years. I also...sing, dance, conduct, love to travel, hang out with friends, have 4 tattoos, have a piercing, am intelligent, ride a motorcycle, am liberally minded, am not religious, play futsal, read, watch movies, play billiards, drink, go to all kinds of concerts/performances, enjoy exceptional dining experiences, go to the beach, ski, snowboard occasionally, scuba dive, roller blade, enjoy dressing up, shop, work, graduated from college, etc., etc., etc.

So in a small nutshell, that's me. There's obviously lots more too me, but that story is for another day...
