About Me

CURRENT MISSION

depends on the day.

ABOUT ME

Generally a soft spoken person who has moments of audible babblings. Simple things intrigue me. I value laughter, honesty, and good friends.
I have held all sorts of jobs which have been wonderful teachers and allowed me to meet interesting people of all sorts.

PHILOSOPHY

Change is constant, nothing stays the same, including my philosophy.
