About Me

Sometimes I time myself to see how long I can hold my breath

I LOVE taking pictures (shoot over 5,000 per year)

talk Too much (even if it's someone I don't know, I will tell a story haha)

drive a Lot (and lots of different vehicles)

am addicted to going fast (land or water)

happen to be a computer dork :P (hence my Computer Systems Administrator job @ Vandy)

prefer Reef flip-flops over any other footwear
