About Me

Hey y'all!
I was born and raised in Philly and have spent the past few years going to med school in Miami. I just finished up, so now I'm hopping around before the real fun gets started (read: non-stop work). I am always eager to hear a new perspective on life, and I can be a very useful guest: Heavy couch that needs to get moved? High-up thing to fix? Quire reír al español más gringo del mundo?
