Introduction Who am I? I'm an actor singer, dancer, lover of cottage cheese, amateur chef, wanna-be gardener, nature lover, yoga enthusiast, and seeker of good music. I am on a pursuit to a sustainable and environmentally conscious life. I believe in living life fully and purposefully, and I'm always up for an impromptu dance party. I spend most of my time teaching small children; children who have taught me not to take life so seriously because even then yuckiest of things can be fun.
Interests Reading, Cooking, Taking silly pictures, People watching, Knitting things with holes in them, Cracking myself up, Acting, Singing, Dancing, Taking my dog on new adventures.
Favorite Movies I love Really Old Black and White Horror Movies- anything starring Vincent Price, classic musicals like Funny Face-and newer ones like Newsies and Across the Universe, and pretty much any of the great princess movies: The Princess Bride, The Princess Diaries, Labrynth, Plus John Cusack; all of him. (High Fidelity, Say Anything, America's Sweethearts, ect...)
Favorite Music Anything written in the 40's, but especially Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie, big band, Gershwin... Of course there's the 50's and 60's: Dusty Springfield, Billie Holiday, Elvis Presley, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Nat King Cole, The Platters... The Mamas and the Papas, The Beatles, Elton John, Simon and Garfunkle... David Bowie, Cyndi Lauper... and more recently: Death Cab for Cutie, The Decemberists, Kate Nash, Ben Folds, Jonah Matranga, Rufus Wainwright, Autumn Sky, Modest Mouse, Coldplay, Regina Spektor... I like music, anything that makes me happy is great! Lately it's been the 50's and early 60's radio station. It's perfect for summer.
Favorite Books Harry Potter, Meg Cabot, Bless Me, Ultima, The Secret Garden, Peter and Wendy, A Wrinkle in Time, The Lottery, Sarah Dessen, Roald Dahl, William Thackeray, Madeleine L'Engle, Shirley Jackson, Christopher Durang, Caryl Churchill I love reading wonderful pieces of literature, horror/mystery novels, and squishy pieces of fluff that appeal to my inner girliness. It's summer, so I'm reading a lot of fluff.
