CURRENT MISSION

keep on rockin' in the free world

ABOUT ME

I enjoy waking up and seeing what the world has to offer. I have a zest for travel and I enjoy being surprised and inspired by new people, places and ideas.

I am fun loving and gnerally impressed with life. I enjoy stepping out of my comfort zone. If I hear music I have to dance, if I know the words I have to sing. As a teacher of young minds I feel continually inspired by their ease and enjoyment out of lifes simple pleasures.

I will never turn down an outdoor adventure. I love camping and I have recently been interested in climbing more 14ers (I think it's a Colorado thing). I am also a big fan of going to the movies. Whether it is a new blockbuster or an obscure art house film, I enjoy them all. I work hard during the week and therefore cherish my weekends. I enjoy spending them outside or absorbed in a good book.
