ABOUT ME

If [[Tina Fey]] and the Verizon Guy had a love child - It would be me. I share there quirkiness, quiet confidence and comic timing.

My carbon foot print is about a half mile from my domicile. Does that make me green because PC trends irk me. Little things in life like great cinema, the smell of fresh linen and scouring the city for the next dive featured on the Food Network make me happy. I prefer to be amazed by a magic trick than know how it's accomplished.

The beach is my favorite vacation spot whether it be Mission Viejo or Lake Como. If you would rather swim in open water than sail over it we most likely will get along. Quirks and conversation make me happy when people connect in a shared agenda or affection.

I tend to gravitate toward the color blue, The Boston Red Sox and sienna sunsets. Sparkly eyes, tattoos and beauty marks fascinate me.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Paul Lynde and Charles Nelson Reilly were lovers.

PHILOSOPHY

I am persistent in following my creative path. At the end of the day I have no regrets.
