1. I have a twin sister named Katy. Although we look and sound identical we are actually mirror twins. Yes, I often can read her mind.

2. I have four beautiful nieces named, Brenna, Blakelee, Grace and Isabelle. The gems of our family. I am one of four daughters of my mother and father who have been lifelong friends, celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary this year. Chris and I just had our 5th.

3. I Love Coffee!!!!! I think I should actually be called coffee bear. I work part-time for a coffee roaster in Hood River as well as managing our glass business. We are blessed to be intertwined with amazingly diverse people from living here. It's really fantastic.

4. Until I found Chris, I had no idea how much a musical experience could change your life. The sheer amount of energy that can be created in a moment by a mass of connected strangers amazes me.

5. I grew up in Spokane, Washington and moved to Portland in 1996. I have spent most of my adult childhood here in Oregon and really wouldn't have it any other way. Although I think we should invest in a timeshare in San Francisco.

6. I am as honest as it gets, and my unbridled opinions often get me into trouble. Oops. I'm working on this one.

7. I love Rock and Roll. A screeching guitar and some sick rythm and I'm all set. Although make room for some more Butter. I didn't think a bluegrass band or ("Green Grass" as I like to think of them) could make you move like that. Yeah Butter. I find more joy in dancing and singing than anything. So thanks to all of those who put out such kick ass tunes. And to those who sit around the campfire strumming along.........

8. I love this life!
