I'm of the type that loves to try and learn new things. I live life to the fullest and enjoy the small things life has to offer. You can find me always smiling and difficult to get rattled, especially when the company is good.

Music has been a favorite hobby of mine, playing or listening to the improvised melodies of smooth jazz all the way to some of the great rock bands we have all come to know and love. I have been playing the trumpet since the age of 9 and love getting lost in many of the warm,smooth rhythms of music.

Some days I can be found enjoying the different textures and subtle hints of flavors while wine tasting. Other times I can be found brewing, which has become a passion of mine(I love making new things just to see how they go together).

I also love spending time at my cottage up in Michigan. There's nothing like enjoying the way sunlight shines through the trees, feeling the warmth of a fire, roasting marshmellows, and feeling the fresh water lapping over when taking a swim or sliding through your toes like sand when walking along the shore line in the nearby lake to relax.
