CURRENT MISSION

To take advantage of being young and healthy

ABOUT ME

I grew up in small town America, which is not as boring or isolated as one might think, although it's still a lot of both.

My mother tells me I'm very smart and pretty, but then whose mothers don't? Regardless, I think I have a pretty good head on my shoulders, am ambitious without being obnoxious about it, and am very open to new places, people and things.

PHILOSOPHY

"And we'll all be the same in the end."

I live life looking for contentment and beauty - in actions, surroundings, and souls

Interests

improving my marginal german skills, eating an excellent meal, reading novels outside on sunny days, learning trivia, playing board games, smoking cigarettes, enjoying a beer, talking to strangers
