Connector
“Connection is why we're here. We are hardwired to connect with others, it's what gives purpose and meaning to our lives, and without it there is suffering.” - Brene Brown, Daring Greatly
Closeness and connection are at the core of my being. I place a high value on my relationships, and I always marvel at what I find in common with people through everyday conversation. Life is too short not to be enjoyed, and my “crew” is an eclectic mix that keeps me going.
You can find me in all sorts of places, especially when there is a good sale. I am also known for being the first on the dance floor. Feel free to talk to me about concerts, dance, or community events.
