I'm a lover of women of all backgrounds, needs, and culture coming together and acknowledging our strength in numbers. I'm also a lover of life, love, travel, and culture. A native of Georgia and a wife of a Carolinian; my heart will always have a lady like appeal and a soul of grace. Looking to connect with women who have a spirit and soul that desires to be free and experience the world.



My Interest: Great Connections, Good Restaurants, Great Cocktails, Hard Laughs, and overall good time.
