About Me

I was raised as an athlete with a theatrical air and a punk attitude in Grunge-town, USA but I hold a soft spot in my heart for the finer things in life. I'm blunt and honest and I expect nothing less in return. I have a severe lack of respect for people with superiority complexes. I love my family and friends more than they could ever possibly know. I'm terrified and excited to be moving to New York, and I'm ready to take on the challenge of living my life to the fullest. I'm fucking stubborn about living my life the way I want to, my parents learned that a long time ago...
