LA born and raised. Working as a therapist with children/adolescents 6 to 17. I'm very passionate about my work and love doing my part to help the world. I also have to mention my love for teaching. I worked for years as a special ed teacher for private/public schools, as well as juvenile hall. When I’m not working I'll be at a live show (LOVE Rockabilly/Psychobilly shows!), the movies (I’m a HUGE film buff), maybe a museum/garden (Getty centers, MOCA, LACMA, Self Realization Fellowship, LA Arboretum, Huntington Library, etc.), or driving to one of my favorite places to eat (Malibu Seafood, The Curry House, etc). I also love trying new places to munch and regularly search Yelp for new ideas. I always carry my mountain bike in the bed of my truck and sometimes even ride it. I dig working out (love my recumbent bike), live theater, travel (Lake Tahoe, San Luis Obispo, San Francisco/Berkeley, Utah, Chicago, etc.), drag/roadcourse racing (I’ve got one car and truck I race) and going to the outdoor/indoor shooting range/shooting trap. I also am famous for my Wii bowling skills. I’m a huge animal/wildlife fan so I’ve always liked unique pets. Right now I'm the proud owner of a Bearded Dragon lizard and a huge Tire track eel. Oh and I've gotta mention that music is a HUGE part of my life. I'm constantly listening to music of all types and love checking out new artists (live, radio, and on my ipod).

For me there’s nothing like a good stimulating conversation with someone passionate about what they do and the lives they live. It would also be great to meet someone that's committed to a career they love and are passionate about.
