Greetings and Salutations!

I’m a 37-year-old (soon to be 38, and yes, I’m still accepting birthday gifts) woman navigating life in the Midwest. I work full-time in aerospace, which means I can definitely launch a conversation, and I’m also diving headfirst into my passion for creative writing in school. I share my home with two amazing teenagers half the week—our close bond means I’m basically a full-time superhero (cape not included).

Books are my passion—my kids used to say we lived in a library! I’ve downsized my collection a bit, donating many to prisons, libraries, and schools, but I still have enough to start my own book club (with snacks, of course). Writing is my daily ritual, and I’ve recently picked up painting as a way to express my inner artist—though my landscape pieces might just look like a toddler’s finger painting. Cooking is another passion; I love experimenting with new recipes and techniques, and cooking for others is one of the ways I show love. I firmly believe we must pursue love and cooking with reckless abandon.

I’m looking for a woman who leans toward the masculine side—be it masc, butch, or however you identify. While I’d prefer to connect with someone in the greater Midwestern area, I’m open-minded about where my right person might be—who knows, maybe you’re across the globe and just need to plan a trip to meet me!

I love heartfelt conversations, and laughter is a must—let’s share some joy and maybe a few terrible dad jokes! If you enjoy talking on the phone and are up for exploring a genuine connection, I’d love to hear from you.

Let’s create something beautiful (and possibly hilarious) together!
