About Me

I am a nerd in all things: get me going on big words, anything ancient Greek or Roman, horses, or human anatomy and I will talk your ear off for years to come. I am described as a "walking dictionary."

Interests

The three big loves of my life is my horse Cody, books, and travelling. I've been riding for almost 19 years. The most natural I ever feel is when I'm galloping Cody bareback across the desert. My "comfort books" compose of about 50 that I had to choose from before I moved for school. The rest are still sitting in boxes at my parents' house. Among the tops are: The Iliad, Gone With the Wind, Wicked, Harry Potter, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Brave New World, Atlas Shrugged, and The Hunger Games. Staring at me right now from the wall is the big map of the world I've colored in with countries I've been to and ones I'm dying to see.
