CURRENT MISSION

Expose people from around the world to the awesomeness of the Cleveland area

ABOUT ME

I'm ever curious, agreeable, and occasionally overwhelmingly average. I haven't been in Cleveland that long, but I'm passionate about showing others that it doesn't live up to its cold, boring, dirty reputation.

PHILOSOPHY

By day, I am obsessed with investigating the mysteries of the universe.

Once I walk out of my office, though, I want nothing more than to see the bottom of an ice cold beverage, a great talk with a new friend, and watch the sun disappear across the lake.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite book is definitely Pillars of the Earth, by Ken Follett. I feel so strongly that everyone should read it, that I have a tendency to buy out used book stores of their copies, and distribute them to friends and acquaintances who haven't read it.

My favorite movie is probably the Lord of the Rings (which as far as I'm concerned is one super long movie), though Star Wars is up there. Also Thor. I have kind of a bro-crush on Thor.

TV shows: Parks&Rec, White Collar, True Blood. I really want to watch Dexter, too! I loved Battlestar Galactica, but I haven't watched the finale because I don't want it to end.

Music: I try to get out of picking the music whenever possible. I listened to Metallica all the way to work today. Other days, it's country, or acoustic guitar, or crappy pop, or really bad suburban rap music.
