Interests
I enjoy swimming, hiking, rollerskating, and dancing as forms of exercise and fun. I am a certified raw food chef and trained in many other approaches to cooking so creating great meals and sourcing good healthy ingredients is always top of mind for me. I am currently learning many things about remodeling and rehabbing a building and am also in the early stages of learning German. I love music, ballet, and arts so recreational time is finding me at performances or art exhibits on the regular. I will soon be bringing a poodle puppy into my life, so that will be a major focus of bonding and training :)
