ABOUT ME

Born in 1985, I moved to Brasil for high school for 3 years in 2000!! Graduated in 2003, after becoming fluent in Portuguese and falling in love with Rio de Janeiro!

Then I came back to the US for college, which is where I joined a bike gang:
- we got little pink kids bikes and rode around campus...seriously. we were damn intimidating, too, but were a benevolent gang. we were "The Jokers" and we put that playing card on our back wheel so it would hit the spokes all the time, making a howling noise. Those who feared us, ran; those who loved us came running.

I graduated with a mechanical engineering degree in May 2007.

I'm now in Xai-Xai, Mozambique, and will live here until November 2010.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm accepting, include everyone, friendly, got a ballin personality, think the word "ballin" is ridiculous, and think the word "ridiculous" is a pretty cool word.
