I'm simply the girl next door. I'm an independent professional woman who loves to cook, entertain, work on projects around my house and do things for others. I do everything I can for the people in my life. I work hard, my job demands a lot of my time and I enjoy spending time with my friends and family. I lead an active, healthy lifestyle and continually try to maintain that. I have an amazing circle of friends and truly enjoy my life.

In my spare time...I have some friends that play in a band, I love to go out and watch them on the weekends, enjoy a cold adult beverage and love to hang out outside. I am a sports-girl at heart with a passion for the Rays, Bucs, Bulls and Gators. You can sometimes find me at a sports bar watching the game or parked in front of the tv at home, cheering on my favorite team!

I'm self-sufficient, a go-getter and pretty much not afraid to take a risk. I've had many opportunities in life and have definitely learned from them. I tend to be more of a positive person than a negative person and try to surround myself with the like. Life is too short to always see the bad side of things!

I'm looking for someone who wants to enjoy life, live each day to the fullest and who works hard, but also can walk away from it for a night on the town, or a night in with a movie or a game. I volunteer with a children's grief support network and truly enjoy "giving back" to my community.

My first date would be something casual to see if there is spark or interest. I wouldn't mind making some new friends here also.
