I'm the girl next door. I'm affable, gregarious, educated, and have a sense of humor. I enjoy playing pool and poker. I like to bowl. I am a dog person. I have an Alaskan Malamute that is certified as a therapy dog. I enjoy going to movies, comedy clubs, concerts, opera, ballet, and the symphony. I like Jazz and Classical music and also listen to rock. I enjoy being outdoors, going for a hike in the mountains or a day at the park with the dog. I love to laugh. I love training and working with dogs. I spend my free time volunteering at the local animal shelter, nursing homes, and hospitals. Parents love me, and I'm not too shy behind closed doors.
