ABOUT ME

My personality is fairly middle of the road.  At times I can be extroverted and others introverted.  I enjoy good conversations on just about any subject.  I can get along with just about anyone and enjoy doing so.  I am open to most any sort of experience and tend to thrive a bit in the akward ones.  I enjoy having a lot of life around me and tend to like high energy people.I was raised in a very stereotypical Germanic/Minnesotan household and thus come off as a bit cold.  I am however very personable despite any initial impression I might give.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a largely Enlightenment outlook on life.  I principly believe in liberty and mutual respect.
