I was born in Rhode Island, but spent most of my life in Dayton, Ohio. I studied and performed ballet, tap, jazz, and modern dance for over twenty years. I moved to Portland in 1999 and fell in love with Oregon. No snow here! Nowadays, I sling beer at the Gasthaus by night and spend my days playing in the dirt and reading anything that I can get my hands on.

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

To name a few: Cotton Jenny, Split Lip Rayfield, Muffaletta Galaxy Pirates, Bohemian Onslaught, Seven Year Tango, Fatboy Slim, Under The Influence Of Giants, Depeche Mode, The Fabulous Hedgehogs, Justin Timberlake, The Cure, Martin Denny, Soul Coughing, The Beatles, The Meters, Led Zeppelin, Up Bustle And Out, Elvis Presley, Madonna, Prince, Jamiroquai, Jane's Addiction, ... Pretty much anything that I can dance to and any project that my friends are in. I don't really like country/western, although I love Johnny Cash.

Close Encounters Of The Third Kind, The Big Lebowski, The Princess Bride, Innerspace, Starship Troopers, Office Space, Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, anything with Bill Murray or Steve Martin...I love all musicals (including Xanadu & The Rocky Horror Picture Show), animated and horror movies! My favorite horror movie is Hellraiser.

Futurama, Family Guy, The Simpsons, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Tick, Heroes, anything with Phil Hartman, Late Night W/ Conan O'Brien, Last Call W/ Carson Daly, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, Chappelle's Show, Guiding Light, America's Next Top Model, NFL, NBA

Catch-22, To Kill A Mockingbird, anything by Frank Herbert & Kurt Vonnegut, Kitchen Confidential, Waiting: True Confessions Of A Waitress... The last two books are ones that I think everybody should read, especially if you like to go out to eat. Remember this as you read them: everything in those books is totally true!
