I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

Well, to start, I'm a native New Yorker from wine country, Long Island (therefore I was spared the obnoxious accent). I did a year of volunteer work after high school which led me to explore the Great West/Midwest. After living on a Native American Reservation, working on a Historical Farm, teaching ESL, maintaining a ranch in WY (my background wallpaper is where we stayed lol) and more, I returned to good ol' NY and pursued a degree in whatever came easiest to me. I then chose to return to the Land of Lincoln after my college years. So here I am, working for a wonderful cause, living in an AMAZING city, and just enjoying life. I'm a very outgoing individual who loves to dance old school, meet new people, watch SVU, try and change the world, eat mac and cheese, sing karaoke, learn new things, explore new places, sit on the beach, hang out with friends, create and admire art, be with my family, laugh, ect. I have no tolerance for ignorance, dishonesty, or selfishness. But if you are compassionate, funny, and considerate (and not easily embarrassed), feel free to be my friend. :)Myspace Contact Tables , hosting by Imgdump.net
