“Why so serious?” That’s what people always ask when they first observe me. I think I was born with that look on my face. My aunt said I was so serious as a child it was intimidating. Don’t let my look of concentration mislead you.
Really I am a laid back, easy going, pretty geeky girl. It’s the geeky part that tends to put me in a focused, driven sort of state. I can be intense. I don’t do things a little bit. I go for it, and with passion. Like the meaning of my name “enthusiastic, fire brand”.
I am in many ways introverted, like most technicians. I can be particular, but am not as obsessive as I often get accused of. I love my work and my students. I give as much as I can and sometimes more to teaching. I really love studying movement and watching the transformation that occurs when someone shifts the way they stand, breathe, move.
I also love kids, being around them relaxes me. I love hiking, swimming, lying in the sun, drinking tea, reading books, gardening, cooking. All the typical life stuff. I even love cleaning.
I am also a nutrition nerd, and crazy irrational shopper. I love shopping, I love stores. I like grocery shopping, clothes shopping, any kind of shopping really. Antique, thrift, and garage sale shopping are the best.
