Getting to Know You

I am a total nerd! I love reading, playing video games & watching documentaries about history, science & astronomy.

I was born in England and have more family in England than in the U.S.

I met Antonio Banderas while he filmed Spy Kids in Austin.

I love gardening and growing tomatoes, corn, and native plants.

I attended elementary school in 3 states and high school in 3 states, moving frequently as a child.

I love watching baseball (go Astros!) and traveling.

I’ve traveled to 36 states and 17 countries.

I learned how to waterski when I was 12 years old at Long Lake in Wisconsin.

I am tri-lingual (English, Chinese Mandarin, and Cantonese) but cannot learn another language no matter how hard I try!

I partially put myself through college working as a disc jockey.

One of my guilty pleasures is binging trashy reality tv. More shows than I'd like to admit.

I was born with 11 toes but had the extra pinky toe removed when I was a toddler.

I am a performer at heart & have been in a music video, a L'Oreal hairshow, a Bud Light commercial, and several plays.

I played the violin for 6 years.

I’ve attended almost all of the ACL 3-days since the festival started in 2002.

I'm an Escape Room aficionado and have a pin collection from the rooms I've beaten.

I love watching period films and TV shows and learning what’s fact and what’s fiction.

As emcee of my high school assemblies, I dressed up in full character as Shrek, Peter Pan, & Jeff Probst (Survivor).

I have a passion for books and buying physical hardbacks. I still have about 330 books - 75% of which need to be read.

I played tennis throughout high school and won all-district in Doubles.

I do not eat condiments.

I love water sports but almost drowned while surfing.
