I grew up in Tahoe, Reno and Sacramento, went to college in Chico and moved to Santa Barbara before sprouting roots in San Diego. I’m creative and curious. I believe if a person acts with intelligence & compassion, good things will come; if they act with ignorance & carelessness, life will be difficult. I believe that the only way to know anything for sure is to experience it for yourself. I believe you will never regret a single moment you spend with your family. I believe in dogs. I like documentaries, Saturday mornings, Eddie Izzard and black licorice. I dislike ignorance, intolerance, hate and the sound of styrofoam against styrofoam. The Muppets scare me.
