About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surviving the 93 and learning how to do the dishes

ABOUT ME

I am an easy-going fun loving guy who enjoys a good pint. I love traveling, been to 18 countries, and many more to come! I am an amateur actor, fascinated with Shakespeare, who is living abroad in France for a year, exploring the world, and looking to learn about this crazy Earth place. I watch movies very closely, especially acting and script techniques. I like to read, although I don't do it often enough. I want to improve my drawing skills. Soccer and swimming have been constants in my life with a sprinkle of ping-pong.

PHILOSOPHY

We have minds and bodies, we should try to use them to their fullest extent.
