About Me

I am originally from Pittsburgh, PA, and migrated south via Wingate University where I attended college. I am currently a graduate student at the University of Georgia studying plant pathology. I live in the great town of Athens, which is full of irritating college students and hippies. My favorite hangout in Athens is Copper Creek or 8e's bar, which plays the cheesiest songs from the 80's.
My family relocated to the carolina coast and I am totally in love with it! I would love to one day live in Charleston or Savannah and teach at a small college/university. I have the greatest family in the world! They support my broke self through school and the many stupid things I have done. Most of my friends live all over the country - two of my best friends moved far away to another country called California...haha I miss them dearly and cannot wait to visit them soon!
If you want to add me as a friend drop me a line!
