About Me

MySpace Layouts at TweakYourPage.com
There is nothing really special about me. Besides the whole issue with having one blonde eyebrow and other random colors of hair, I am pretty much just your average Joe(y). I was born and raised in Michigan and spent most of my life there - many would considerate that a tragedy, but there is nothing like the good ol' mitten. The majority of my life has revolved around soccer, but after 10+ concussions I decided it was a good idea to hang up the boots and move on...so move on I did. I packed my bags and headed to New York City - which by the way, was a always a dream of mine - and I now work for adidas. There is so much I love about New York - Central Park, Museums, all the different people, the energy, etc. I have always been a clown and always will be. Most of the time I joke around and I am very sarcastic, but I do know when I need to be serious. I will always be a kid, which is one of the reasons I am still a Joey. I'll never be a Joe no matter how old I get. I love making people laugh...there is nothing better than a smile on someone's face.
