About Me


I am from Northern Minnesota and I live in Nashwauk, a place I like to call "The Village." It's a small, quaint town, which I have called home for my entire life. I currently reside in Morris, MN, where I attend school at UMM.
I am ready to get away from Minnesota for awhile. I need to explore the world (Italy, Germany, Japan, Wales, etc.). I have a wonderful girl in my life. I absolutely love her with all of my heart and soul. She enlightens my soul and illuminates my heart. She is the light which leads me down life's dark tunnel. Her eyes tell me a story that I never knew. For that I am grateful.
What Else Should I Say?
I am 5'8" and somewhat overweight. I have no piercings. I want tattoos. I have depression. I am not a Democrat. I am not a Republican. I am not part of any political party. I construct my ideals from numerous sources. I FULLY support gay marriage. The church should not get involved with the matter whatsoever. Legislation that has been put forth in numerous states to ban gay marriage makes me sick to my stomach. We are living The New Civil Rights Movement in the 2000s. I support a woman's right to choose, though we need to ban partial birth abortion. If you want to know more, don't hesitate to ask me questions. I'm a very open and genuine person.
Other than all of that, the dark/morbid/melancholic side of life is what catches my attention most of the time. It is the stink of people's fear that draws me to the dark side, and I just roll with that.
