I...

am an unabashed music geek and voracious reader (always have a book on hand in case there's a free moment)...

have got a dark sense of humor, and dry sarcasm does pass my lips every so often (yeah, a bit of a smart-ass), but there's always kindness behind it...

love good conversations, especially over coffee or cocktails...

double-majored in political science & religious studies at UNC-Chapel Hill, and will happily talk for hours about either topic (and many others)...

am definitely a romantic at heart...

drive down to Ashland almost every year for the Shakespeare Festival...

spend a ridiculous amount of time doting on my cats...

like to try new recipes, excel at quite a few dishes, & can generally be pretty useful around the kitchen...

keep 'restuarant' kosher, so i can be as finicky as a vegetarian, but also occasionally crave a burger from red mill...

am always up for bowling (r.i.p. Sunset), pinball, tennis (somebody out there needs a hitting partner, right?!), bike rides, exploring the city, or anything music-related...

used to be a college radio dj (WXYC); currently the calendar editor for threeimaginarygirls.com...

am learning to play the bass...

make an incredibly strong & delicious manhattan, and love messing around with cocktail ingredients...

still don't know what i want to do with my life, but I'm enjoying trying to figure it out...

am generally a happy person & meeting someone new makes things all the better.
