I'm a former NYU student. I studied theatre and political science and plan to attend seminary at Union Theological Seminary affiliated with Columbia University (super liberal & progressive) in the fall. I just moved back to NY from Jacksonville, FL and am trying to get resettled in the city.

I have two rules that govern my life and social interaction: peace & love. I am a full-blown extrovert with a keen sensibility around the comfort level of other people. I am fascinated by all human beings and all cultures. I cook (rather well), sing; clean and get a kick out of making people smile.

I lived in Mumbai, India for two months as a part of my job training at Capgemini, LLC and thus developed an intense passion to work toward ending global poverty. I'm passionate about all things social justice both in the US and abroad. As John Lennon describes in the hit song "Imagine" I am a DREAMER. But I hope I'm not the only one. :) (I'm that guy!).

Look forward to meeting you!
