I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am a rambling rambler, sometimes quiet, sometimes loud, and always a tad bit odd. I like going to see bands, like walking in the woods, and skiing in Vermont with friends. I like standing around the bbq with the lads, drinking beer and discussing futile issues. Travel expands the mind and soothes the soul. I like walking the dog and trying new foods. I like quiet holidays with my family.
