Allow me introduce myself...

You all already know me as Sickboy’s exercise buddy and partner in crime, but since you’ll be stuck reading my posts once a week, why don’t I tell you a little more about myself.

I grew up all over the place. Born in Ohio, I moved every few years (for my dad’s job) from Ohio to Michigan, Michigan to Pennsylvania, PA to Singapore (in Asia), Singapore back to Pennsylvania. Once I graduated high school, I moved to Syracuse, NY to attend Syracuse University. I just graduated from Syracuse (Go Orange) in December with a degree in public relations and minors and marketing and psychology and moved out to AZ, where my parents moved while I was in college and my older brother now lives. My parents still own their house here, but are living for 3-5 years in Shanghai (that’s what brought Ronnie to China over the holidays). I am currently working full time at a small start-up non profit -- but more on that later...

Now that we’ve gotten my standard story out of the way, let me give you a better idea of me. I think you can tell a lot about someone by the things they love...so here’s a short list of things that I love: sunsets, the first sip of coffee in the morning, traveling, sailboats, live music, running, sun dresses, Skipbo, the first few hours after the sunrises, chocolate chip cookies, graphic design, time with family, bonfires, any and all candy (chocolaty and fruity), House Hunters (HGTV), surprises, Dunkin’ Donuts, Christmas morning, romantic comedies, hiking, and orchids.

That’s my brief introduction...to give you a little glimpse into Sickboy’s lady and your Monday author. I’d love for you guys to introduce yourselves to me by giving a short list of things you love...

...I look forward to Monday’s with you. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me and for reading my ramblings :)
