I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm quiet 'til you get to know me. Always silly, but serious when I have to be. I try to have a good time no matter where I am or what I'm doing. Friends and family are extremely important to me. Those who know me, know that I have a lot of heart. I'm a bit of a dreamer, but I've been taking steps to make my dreams a reality. Music is a huge part of my life. I'd probably by dead without it. I'm also really into comedy. If you can get me to break out of my shell, chances are I'll make you laugh. I prefer little hole-in-the-wall bars and pubs. Traveling is always a good time. Vegas, Texas, Florida, and Maine are some of my favorite destinations. Hockey is my sport, but I also follow baseball and football.
My teams:
Hockey: Boston Bruins, Dallas Stars
Baseball: Red Sox
Football: Patriots
Some quotes that I try to live by:
"While there are limits to the time we all have to live our lives, there are no limits on how we live our time." -- Ron Rubin and Stuart Avery Gold
"If you don't live for something, you'll die for nothing." -- Hatebreed
"If you say it, mean it. If you mean it, do it." -- Anthrax
If there's anything else you want to know, just ask.
