I am passionate and energetic. I love deep, intelligent conversations...but I also enjoy witty banter. I love eating and cooking healthy food and living a healthy lifestyle. I can be found in the gym 4 days a week weight training and outside at least 2 days a week, hiking, running, walking etc. Christianity is central to my life. I have found hope and grace there. I think dancing is fun-hip hop and salsa. Living in LA county, of course I love the ocean/beach which encompasses laying out, surfing, and swimming. I am a huge college football fan-HOOK EM HORNS and I heart UK basketball deeply. I really like traveling outside and inside the US. I have studied 5 languages other than English in school and take pleasure in learning about other cultures. When I get to do it, I really like camping and cooking for big groups of people, my roomies and I have dinner parties a lot. I am always down to try something new...I work with adults and youth at a church and I will finish my masters this next summer. I love learning, writing and teaching. I am an Office fan, I enjoy a good sense of humor. Social Justice is important to me, especially the issue of homelessness here in LA. I enjoy telling and hearing great stories.

Dinner, lunch, coffee shop, wine bar, watching UT win on a Saturday over a good beer on tap :)
