ABOUT ME

I'm opinionated but I'm also open-minded. I'm willing to consider any point of view and I have good friends who think very differently than I do. I'm independent but I'm also a loyal friend and I place a high premium on kindness.

Interests

I love to think and talk about political philosophy, politics, religion and literature. I like to cook, bake and draw for fun. I love to be active -- I swim and run a lot and I bike everywhere.
