My Interests
I love everything about nature. When I hike, it feels more like home than the place where my mail collects. I am an affectionate creature. I think it's important to make people feel appreciated. I used to be big on playing basketball and volleyball (and all contact, aggressive sports), but I transitioned to powerlifting after several big injuries. I'm currently finishing up a DPT degree at Columbia University, and I'm looking to work in sports medicine / athletic performance. I love what I do and I can't wait to finish this program. I'm horrible at texting. I love meeting new people, but I'm perfectly happy with alone time too. I write when I can -- I've been doing it off and on for 14 years. I am grateful for my life. I wish to be a generous person. I like to start my day with music and end my day with learning something new.
