The "Real Bio"
Hello, My name is Noelle. The best way to describe myself is a Creative. I was raised in a family that celebrated the arts. Giving me a unique and sometimes weird perspective on almost everything. Memories of my childhood are tinted in an orange or rust-colored hue, warm to the touch, and smell of leaves burning in the Fall. My mother was a dancer and taught me to be in touch with my body and insisted I make my way through life gracefully. My footsteps make an entrance 60 feet before I do which means that she was partially successful. My dad saw everything through an artist's lens and opened my eyes to a kaleidoscope perspective of the world. The value of looking at things from a different view and the beauty of the empty space between objects.
I have a very poor sense of direction with the appearance of someone who knows where she is going, which has opened the door to many conversations with strangers asking for directions.
Despite lacking navigation skills my true compass will eventually lead me where I am supposed to be. My heart beats for my family and for the handful of friends, I hold very dear. I'm working on building a ladder of trust over the walls I have built to protect it.
The space I hold for fun is filled with lifting heavy things, both literally and metaphorically, my improv troupe, discovering new places to hike, all dogs, and the quest for the very best fish taco.
