I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and lived in San Francisco proper for years before I moved to the East Coast. My move was primarily for work, but am so happy to have had the opportunity. I love living on the East Coast and really enjoy Washington DC for all it has to offer me.

One common thread about me as a person, is that I'm very easy to get along with and reliable as a friend. My friends describe me as 'grounded' but they also recognize that I have a fun wild side too. I love both extremes and live my life bouncing from one side to the other.

In my twenties I was passionate about Flamenco and worked hard to make a small career out of it. In my thirties I have a similar passion with volleyball and I work just as hard to ever improve myself. When it comes to something I am passionate about, my determination to achieve never falters.
