Artist girl who lives in the backwoods. I travel often with my Love and sometimes two little well trained dogs in our handmade custom teardrop camper.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music. Everything. Pop to opera to punk to jazz to rock to the most obscure things you can think of. A collector of vinyl new and old.

Books. I have a degree in this. You wanna talk books, oh boy, let's talk. Classics, fiction, non-fiction, learning. I read everything I can get my hands on.

Movies. Cult classics, foreign films, theatre features, cartoons... my husband is the movie buff, but by proxy I've watched most things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm. Ask me. So many places, so many people, so many things you don't discuss on the internet. Lol.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an artist of multiple trades, the volunteer chairperson of a local charity, the child of hippies, a capable mountain girl who works hard, plays hard, and cherishes moments of silence. Used to be a teacher. Used to work in corporate America. Went to UCLA. Now I manage the family ranch in the boondocks and make custom cannabis jewelry among other things that I sell online.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm easy going. Conversation is nice, but so is privacy. Whatever's clever. I'm a good cook, don't mind cleaning up, and can whip up some sparkling conversation.
