: About Me

At 26 years old, I'm finding myself in need of a jump start. You see, for the past 8 years, I've been living a life dominated by money, bills, business, and a bad relationship. Somehow, I thought that's where it all ended...Somehow, I forgot who I was and where I was coming from. I devoted myself to my relationship and to my business, and I lost myself in the process.

The point is, I'm currently experiencing life as the maze that it is. I thought I had it all figured out, but in the end, I'm struggling to revert to my younger, more artistic self. I'm struggling to find some inspiration in life, some greater joy that I have, thus far, not found.

What does writing have to do with that? And what does all this have to do with writing? Aside from being a passion and talent of my earlier years, writing represents something closer to who I really am and who I want to be. It could be the beacon in the distance that will, hopefully, one day lead me home.

My passion is ...

Information

I know too much about ...

Everything

My parents always told me ...

Trust me, you DON'T want to know

My childhood ambition ...

Go to Stanford, be a doctor, drive a Volkswagon Rabbit, Save the World

My favorite memory ...

I don't know. Mimosas on Thanksgiving morning with my best friend. After mimosas, we fell asleep on the couch. Then we woke up, ate lunch, and fell asleep again.

Why I write ...

To find myself. Cheesy, but incredibly true.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

Amy Winehouse, Sublime, Jack Johnson, Stevie Wonder, political fare...Elections are coming!

My first job ...

Ran a used bookstore at 13 yrs.

My best moment ...

Life looks like a soup to me. It's hard to see the chunks in the stew. I've had lots of great moments, but my best is also one of my worst. Breaking free of my 8 year relationship was and will be, a defining moment in my life. It has only been a few months, but the moments are getting better and better...

My inspiration ...

Freedom. What could be.
