About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Tend to be independent, down to earth, joyous person. I know what I want and what matters to me, a few of those being my family, friends and rugby. Love experiencing new things and being adventurous. Trust and loyalty are two things I cherish in people.

Keep your face towards the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went caving (actual caving were you crawl on your knees with a head lamp) in South Dakota, USA. At one point we all sat in this "room" in the cave and turned off our headlamps. This was the first and only time I have ever experienced total darkness. I kept expecting my eyes to adjust to the light, but my hand would be so close to my face that I could feel it but never see it. It was surreal to say the least.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share my cooking and baking. I have been know to make some awesome cakes.
