ABOUT ME

Jill is friendly, outgoing, and fun! She's always taking on new adventures and learning new things. She's a smarty-pants who double majored in Bio & Environmental Studies and has always been into the outdoors and sort of a tree-hugger. Jill most enjoys casual social gatherings with a drink or two as opposed to getting sloshed at big rowdy parties. She can be reflective, calm, and easily spends time alone. Jill has always been active in any community she belonged to, arranging blood drives, volunteering, or participating in charity events. She's a good friend...supportive, loyal, and honest, and doesn't take herself too seriously. She's passionate and isn't afraid to take a risk to pursue her desires.

Interests

I spend lots of time outdoors mountain biking, swimming, hiking, and backpacking. I also love to read and peruse book stores and libraries. I grew up in choir and band and enjoy most kinds of music; I occasionally chill out to Wii Rock Band singing, drumming, or playing guitar. And I'm kinda crafty with sewing, jewelry, or whatever creative thing strikes my fancy...which makes me a decent cook.
I am all about creating my life as I wish it to be, and act upon gut feelings, callings or intuitions. So I volunteer in a hospice and enjoy being with people along their journey toward end of life.
