A little bit about me...

I'm from the Big Apple originally.  I moved to Maine to attend the University of Maine
seven years ago..and I fell in love! 
My two favorite things about Maine are its' natural beauty
and the NICE PEOPLE :) hey..I'm from New York... nice people are a big deal :o)

I am engaged to a wonderful carpenter
     carpenter picture Ben, and we will be getting married

this summer at the York Harbor Inn.  Ben and I attempted to hike
the Appalachian Trail together last March.  Ben summitted Katahdin August 27, 2006..my knees didn't make it that far! 
I spent my summer at my family cottage on Block Island, Rhode Island.
We moved from Bangor to Windham in the Fall and now I am currently attending
the University of Southern Maine where I am studying
Early Childhood Special Education--I am particularly fascinated with Autism.
I'm a huge pug fanatic, my favorite t.v. show
is the medical drama House, and in my free time
I love to play the piano.
