ABOUT ME

Friendly, funny, outgoing. Not really good at describing myself in words. Better to read the other things I put here I suppose :) Can connect on Facebook. Almost done with medical school, so my schedule varies depending on the week.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't think I'm introspective enough to have a personal philosophy.
