Words I live by: Life is what happens when you're making other plans...Have all the fun you possibly can, it's all we take with us when we go...Borrowing trouble from the future will not deplete the supply.
I can't live without: family, friends, My iPod, DVR, journal, Ricky Martin music and Drake's coffee cakes
I am most proud of: Having the courage to follow my bliss more than once, and recognizing when it was time to pursue a different path...amassing 95 handwritten journals...raising about $20,000 over the years for the American Cancer Society's fight against breast cancer...drawing strength and inspiration from the memory of my parents.
I am most guilty of: dancing around in my underwear like Tom Cruise in "Risky Business...being hotheaded.
The world would be a better place, if only: People wouldn't rush to judgement and practiced forgiveness more.

About Me: I'm a thirtysomething native New Yorker with a passion for travel, dating and making the most of living in the world's greatest city. I recently embarked on The Great Dating Blitz -- an 8-week, 8-city dating tour across the US, exploring what single life is like outside of NYC. I believe that, whether you're searching for someone special or not, being single is an adventure. It's also about making the most of it and enjoying the ride.
