Welcome to my profile

I'm at a point in my life where I'm really comfortable in my own skin, I deeply enjoy my work and am inspired to keep learning and growing in this area, and I am so thankful for all the rich, interesting and loving friendships I have in my life right now. I've always been on the more quiet and reserved side but I've felt that I have a goofy, edgy, exuberant warmth that lives inside me that I'm putting on the outside more and more and it feels great. I think friends would describe me as warm, compassionate, patient, over-analytical, sensitive, persistent, loving, accidentally funny, loyal, casual, and goofy. I can get caught up in my own intellectual and emotional world, so I find being active outside, doing useful things with my hands and body, and having meaningful conversations with people I care about absolutely essential for balance and grounding.
