CURRENT MISSION

To complete my list of '30 things to do before I'm 30'

ABOUT ME

Um, there is a lot to say. I was born in New Orleans, which explains my love of partying and good food, but I also grew up with that rich influence of music, culture, and history. I moved to Dallas when I was 14. I enjoy going to museums. I like to run or do anything outdoors. I love the beach and the pool, the lake - not so much. I like to have fun. I love yoga. I like to read. I like to laugh. I like to have deep conversations until early in the morning. I like to people watch. I like to dance. I like to have a good time. Questions?

PHILOSOPHY

The world is a book and those who do not travel only read a page.

I just want to make sure I see the world before I die... better start now. I'm not getting any younger.
