Contact and Bio

Inseam: ~27"

 
Although I was around motorcycles while in graduate school, I spent most of my time riding pillion. I was not exposed to motorcycles, per se, growing up. My passion at that time was horses. Family rumor is that my first word was not "momma" or "daddy" but "horse"!

Through junior/senior high school, I rode and showed horses -- western class and rodeo-type events such as barrel racing and pole bending. I owned an Appaloosa mare named Beyond and her son, Mr. Bo Jangles (dating myself here).

When I left for college, there was no time for the horses. I gave my parents permission to sell them while I was in graduate school. "Just don't call me and ask for a final OK." Still didn't stop the tears the Christmas I came home and they were gone.

I think there must be a similarity in the love for riding motorcycles and the love for horses. Both can be risky sports; both are very individualistic, although they may be practiced in a social setting. Both can be competitive. And both allow you to feel the wind in your face!

A native of south Georgia, I currently live in suburban Seattle. I recently received certification as a Washington Motorcycle Safety Instructor; I teach for Evergreen Safety Council. I am riding in the July 2000 PonyExpress fundraiser for breast cancer.

Professionally, I'm a communicator and jack of all trades, with a speciality in web development and user advocacy. Bio and resume are online.
