CURRENT MISSION

Earning teaching certificate in special education

ABOUT ME

I enjoy seeing live music of any kind as a night out. My friends and family are important to me but I enjoy time to myself reading, writing or teaching myself guitar. I appreciate good film and talking about it. I like talking about important things but not much about everything else.

PHILOSOPHY

Patience, Compassion, and Simplicity are my three favorite virtues. The Cosmic Trickster is my favorite deity.
