this is me

Almost 30, San Francisco native. Have an amazing boyfriend who doesn't spoil me rotten, he actually treats me as his equal. He's a chef-in-training, so I'm a big foodie now.

To get on my good side, talk to me about food, film, hockey, foreign languages, travel locations, or books. While these are my interests, I surround myself with very tech-savvy and geeky friends.

To stay on my good side, don't let me just tease you without teasing me back. Although, I'm not big on pranks.

I involve myself with all sorts of endeavors. Young Women Social Entrepreneurs (the SF chapter) has me as their 2011 board chair. I'm an alumni of the Fearless Women Entrepreneur Network's program. I belong to Eating with the Seasons, a local CSA. I have attended San Francisco State University's German Masters program. I've interned with Youth For Understanding in Oslo, Norway.

I am the founder of Upon Return, an organization dedicated to supporting the alumni of high school exchange programs and promoting cultural exchange.

I'm an only child, but don't let that stop you from befriending me. I'm perfectly sane.
