About Me
I have loved animals since I first learned what an animal was. This has carried over into my hobbies, education, and interests. I'm also an introvert so it's difficult for me to talk about, well, me. So, below is more about what I like, what I do, etc.
I love sports, especially watching American football (college & NFL), open-wheeled car racing (Indycar & Formula 1), and horse racing. I've been a Carolina Panthers fan since the team was first created in the NFL in 1995. I'm active in downhill skiing as well as mountain biking. I'm a year-round, all-weather bicyclist and use it as my preferred method of transportation--better on my health, the environment, and the wallet!
I graduated from North Carolina State University (Go Wolfpack!) with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Zoology (there's that animal theme again!). I also have an Associate's Degree in Business Management from Eastern Gateway Community College in Ohio. I currently work full-time at a state university. I'm happily single and childless--conditions I've desired since childhood.
My other hobbies include sci-fi/fantasy/anime/animation as well as my sports activities. I enjoy playing claw/crane games as well. I also collect animal figures and have a special spot for felines (obviously!) of all types--domestic & wild. I also have a soft sport for wolves and dragons. I occasionally write fanfics in the 1980's/1990's anime/cartoon genres and on rare occasions, Star Wars. I also can pencil sketch/color, but that's about it from an artistic standpoint. Perhaps one day I'll get into sculpting, painting, and other creative endeavors. I prefer and support art that can be created with the human hand rather than with computers and other non-human gadgets.
