About me...

Hey there! I'm a professional actress living in my own apartment in Rock Island. I just finished an 8 month tour of 'Singin' In The Rain,' and am now back at home base until the next opportunity crops up. In the meantime, I'm working two jobs to pay off some debt and get ahead in life - waitressing / performing at the local dinner theater, and good ol' Starbucks. I'm a motivated, dedicated person, but I'm ready to find someone to share my free time with. Someone to talk to at the end of the days, and relax and laugh with, you know?

I'm looking for...

An equal to be my best friend and significant other. I'm definitely a giver in relationships, but I don't want to be taken for granted. Not high maintenance! I like to go out every now and then, but hanging out at home is just as fun with someone that's right for you.

At the end of the day you just want to be with someone who can make you laugh!

The most important thing in my life is...

Knowing who I am and what I stand for. It's taken a hard journey to get here, but I'm finally starting to understand what I really want and deserve. Not conceited, just aware. Like I said - I'm a giver!

I spend my free time...

Catching up with friends - sometimes drinks and dancing. Reading, Museums, movies....anything new and fun!

About my job...

I'm a professional actress who waits tables at the local dinner theater and is a barista at Starbucks, too. Helps me pay the bills and save a little so I can do shows and follow my dream! I also love to teach children the arts, and do so as often as possible.

How I spent my last vacation...

I went to Arizona to visit a friend and take in the sunshine. Went to a Diamondbacks game, some bars, karaoke, pool every day!, zoo, theatre...pretty much did it all!

My favorite dish or recipe...

Trying to teach myself how to cook...I'm a sucker for Mom's homemade mac n' cheese, tho...

My last good read...

I love to read - pretty much anything and/or everything. If it grabs my attention, I'll read it to the end!

My top 3 favorite movies and why you should see them...

The Libertine, The Fall, and Marie Antoinette.

Wouldn't convince anyone - tastes are different, but it would be nice to have someone that was interested to watch what I liked. I love to see other people's favorite movies/read their favorite books. Can tell you a lot about a person!

The top 5 things I can't live without...

Family, friends, a purpose, the option of travel, optimism.

My personal soundtrack...

This is the hardest question you could ever ask me. It changes every day, every mood, every thought. Music is just the epitome of emotion.

My motto...

'Life's too short not to smile.'

What my best friend would say about me...

A little ridiculous and goofy, but fun and loyal to the end.

My most prominent memory...

Horseback riding through the mountains of Arizona.

If I could be anywhere right now, I would be...

Somewhere sunny and warm. Or somewhere freezing cold with someone I could at least have fun and laugh with!

On my coffee table you will find...

A glass of Shiraz, my cat, and my latest read.

Last Saturday night I...

worked a shift at the theater.

I once made someone laugh by...

Just telling stories of customers to fellow employees tend to make for a good laugh. Or a good groan, depending on the circumstance.

If I could be on any reality TV show, I would be on...

So You Think You Can Dance. Work hard, avoid the drama, and focus on the art, not the publicity or the criticism of it all.
