My closest friends would probably describe me as loyal, funny, and caring. I usually put those I care about in my life first, sometimes to a fault, but i appreciate those around me. I grew up in the area but just moved back after living away for school and work for 10 years. I recently graduated from grad school for elementary education. While looking for a full time teaching job, ive been tutoring and working as a teacher's aide. When i'm not working I like to travel, explore new outdoor places, or do something creative even if it is just trying a new recipe I haven't made yet. In the summer I love to go to the beach and in the winter I like to snowboard, if I have time to make it to a mountain. During my down time I like to draw or paint and I enjoy photography while traveling. I also run as often as possible. I am very down to earth and love spending time with friends. I like good conversations but also love to laugh as often as possible.
I am looking for someone also down to earth, who I can have a good conversation with, can talk about a variety of topics and has a good sense of humor. I would like someone who loves to travel, stay active, and go on impromptu adventures. I care deeply about my work and tend to be goal oriented, I would like someone who is also ambitious. You don't have to have a super-awesome job, but just the ambition to get out of one if you are not happy and willingness to find what does make you happy. Despite being goal-oriented, I still love having a good time, relaxing on the weekends, and playing hard when the opportunity arises :)
