I love dogs. Just trained my first horse (a mare named Charface) I graduated in illustration, which I do freelance as well as having a full time job, then fill in the gaps with hobbies like art and writing, family, and spur-of-the-moment travel. I enjoy hiking when I can find the time, and I -love- being in the water. Snow counts too. Still looking for something to do? I also like swing dancing, latin dancing (though not very experienced at it) archery, and love movies--especially action and animation. I'm super looking forward to Iron Man 3, Oblivion (check!), Into Darkness, Epic, and Turbo this summer.

I went on a mission to Uruguay, and I love keeping up my Spanish and looking for little hole-in-the-wall places where I can find good South American food. I'm looking for someone that can surprise me and make me laugh. If you ride horses that's a +10 points for you.

Personality wise, I'm very independent, straight forward, and admire ambition. I work hard and play hard, and while I really like getting my classy on, I'm just as at home tromping through the rain and mud. Think you're game? Impress me, and lets see where things go :)

I'm pretty busy, so please forgive if I'm not the fastest at responding to things--I prefer messages since I'm really not sure what to do with flirts...I don't bite, promise. If I can tell you actually read all this, too, that's another ten points for you.

I'm a little hesitant about dating men older than 35. Not a deal breaker, but, it's a little weird for me to break the decade barrier.
