Interests
I have an enthusiasm for health and wellness. I enjoy the quest for truth on longevity. I believe that the earth provides us with a bounty of sustainable nurishment. It is important to put the most pure substances into our bodies for optimum health. It is my view that physical fitness is just as important as what we put into our bodies. Our health is also influenced by our thoughts. The knowledge of how our body functions is invaluable. It is my sentiment that there is a delicate balance between the mind, body, and spirit connection.
Outdoors
I believe my interests reflect my values. I have a great appreciation for the environment. I enjoy many outdoor activities. I love to hike, camp, bike, swim, ski, snowshoe, fishing with my dad, and basically anything that involves nature and the great outdoors. I love physical fitness and challenging myself. I try to find my balance through the practice of yoga. Yoga is not just about putting oneself in funny positions, it is a spiritual journey through time and space, it is a way of life.
Food!
I love food, and delight in being in the kitchen cooking up delicious creations! Food is much more than nourishment, it is a fun and expressive journey of tastes, textures, and culture! I will eat, and try just about any style of cuisine. I love fresh bold flavors. My mother was always cooking up something delicious in our kitchen. I believe my love of food comes from her.
I believe healthy food is exciting and done correctly will delight ones palate.
Music
I enjoy all different types of music. I love when summer comes around so that I can go to outdoor concerts and festivals. I love jam band and blue grass music.
Art
I enjoy all forms of art. I enjoy music, dance, theatre, painting, photography, drawing, design, and sculpture. I attended Kenmore East Senior High. While I was there I was very involved in the arts. I took classes in drawing, painting, photograpy, and ceramics. I participated in the clay olympics at Buffalo State College, and went to a month long artists workshop at the University of Buffalo. I have recently started oil painting. I love to document my life through photographs. Nature is art in itself. This picture to the right is an example of a fractal pattern...this is actually broccoli!
