Location Portland, Oregon, United States
Introduction I grew up in Mesa, Arizona and moved to Seattle in 2002 to go to college. I am new to Portland as of April 2008. I love the Pacific Northwest and have no desire to return to the blazing hot valley of the sun. I love being outdoors, autumn leaves, Starbucks, 15 hours of daylight in the summer, and tulips and daffodils. I love biology and sociology. I love kids. My dream job is to stay at home and be a foster parent.
Interests Hanging out with my husband and friends, child welfare and adoption, trying new recipes, traveling, biology, baseball, music, wine tasting and beer festivals, exploring Portland, watching movies, camping, kayaking, rollerblading, surfing, swimming, tennis, reading, going to Starbucks...
Favorite Movies Crash, Zoolander, Juno, The Phantom of the Opera, My Best Friend's Wedding, Indiana Jones, and Band of Brothers.
Favorite Music If my choices are Jars of Clay or anything else, I always pick Jars of Clay.
Favorite Books "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Arthur Golden
