Overview
About Me
I'm a dog walker in the Rittenhouse/Graduate Hospital area of Philadelphia. I live in a house with two wonderful ladies, two wonderful dogs, and three wonderful cats (actually one is an asshole). I believe in Harry Potter and dancing and going with the flow. And probably other things.
"It's impossible to really understand somebody, what they want, what they believe, and not love them the way they love themselves.”
- Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card
"If you're really listening, if you're awake to the poignant beauty of the world, your heart breaks regularly."
-Andrew Harvey
"The real reason I dance is because I want to explode."
-Bill Evans

Suggestions?
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to swing dance, solve a Rubik's cube, and play the violin if you'll teach me Spanish, any other language, the tango, how to cook, how to play guitar, how to fly, how to move things with my mind, how to do basically anything that I don't know how to do...
What I Can Share with Hosts
My wonderful personality? And cleaning? I'm good at cleaning. Please don't ask me to cook.
