I've been an avid reader since I was little. I read everything from the Classics to HP and LOTR from art history/history to foreign language study books (mainly French, Italian, and now Irish, but I would like to try my hand at Greek or Romanian).

I am an art historian with a concentration in Islamic Art and Southeast Asian Art.

I love to dance and have done so for over 13 years, everything from tap, jazz, and ballet to swing (East Coast, Lindy, and a little bit of West Coast), Irish, Latin, Ballroom, Belly Dancing, and Hip Hop.

I love listening to and playing music (flute, piccolo, piano, and handbells).

Traveling is another favourite pastime of mine and I've been to 36 States (I will be attending Misti-Con in May for the first time, so I will be adding at least Massachusetts and New Hampshire and I hope to add a couple others also), Washington DC twice, Mexico MANY times, Canada, and Europe twice, but I cannot wait to go back and revisit some places and go to new places, such as Ireland, Wales, and Greece. I would also like to visit parts of South America, Southeast Asia, Asia, Africa, and Australia.

I can also be found on Archive of Our Own and on LiveJournal under the same username.
