CURRENT MISSION

To travel more! Not keep waiting for the "perfect time," but to make it the perfect time, even if it's just a weekend.

ABOUT ME

My day job is as the owner-operator of a residential cleaning business. This allows me time to do some theatre (I'm a techie); arts & crafts like knitting and crocheting; and mixing live music at a local coffee house.

I volunteer as Tech Coordinator at a local Vineyard church - we're just a church that loves God and loves people! I participate in life a lot through that community.

PHILOSOPHY

I love to help others wherever I can. I feel incomplete if I'm doing things just for me. Sometimes this bites me back, so I'm working on finding the proper balance, and one way is by taking time out for myself to travel!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I ran Tough Mudder in 2013 in Wisconsin and 2015 in Scotland!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a life-long learner. I naturally gravitate to things I can observe and absorb.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a pretty decent cook/baker. I enjoy many board games (i.e. time spent with folks, but not necessarily in front of a TV). I'm a great listener and I LOVE hearing stories!
