ABOUT ME

Funny, easy-going, tolerant, kind, friendly, imaginative, cool, impulsive, unique. I am a free-spirit, I believe in the Golden Rule. I have a great fondness for animals, especially horses and am a professional horseman. I run a children's theatre company on Toronto Island in the summer and I love to cook and do dishes :)

PHILOSOPHY

Leave things better than when you found them. Life is found in the improvements. Live in the now. Be present. Speak clearly, and smile! Life is worth living!

Fellini, Bertocucci, Bergman, Charles Kaufmann, Cohen Bros. Woody Allen for filmmakers I adore.
Lemon Bucket Orkestra, Freman Dre and the Kitchen Party, Indigo Cabaret, Dunklebunt, Muse, for music I am interested in and musicians I work with. Currently reading lots of Fairy Tales, and recently read Edgar Snow's journals about the end of the second world war.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First time I rode a thoroughbred racehorse was for Bart Cummings, in Sydney Australia. The horse was "Willy's World" and he took me for a blast around the track that I will never forget. It made such an impression that I ended up training thoroughbreds for over 8 years and still keep an active licence for Woodbine Racetrack.

Performing in Martin McDonough's play, "The Lieutenant of Inishmore" at Canstage was quite amazing because I had to perform the second act with ear-plugs as I unloaded about 20 rounds of blank ammunition per-show. Acting with no hearing was quite difficult, but amazing.

Stilt dancing with The Lemon Bucket Orkestra in Targu Mares was amazing as an older woman who knew how to dance was teaching me the moves and I had just landed in Europe.
