My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Name is Lizzy, but if you are looking at this page and already know me then I guess that doesn't matter does it?Anyway, I grew up in Greenville Michigan, went to college only an hour away at Hope College and then....I made the huge leap and moved to Washington DC metro area to explore a lovely career in politics. As time as gone by I've settled on a career as a program analyst for the Department of Defense. Oringially I worked for the Army as a congressional analyst for the Air and Space Missile Defense Command and now I'm working for the Warfare Systems Engineering Directorate of the US Navy. Exciting work if you can get it.I really love the DC area and hope to stay here a while (with the purchase of my condo about two years ago it locks me in). sometimes I miss the quietness of Greenville, but I've grown to like the city aspects of life (many many bar crawls where I've ended up tying cherry stems in knots for bartenders!)Currently I'm single (not just currently, but have been for awhile). DC isn't really a hotbed for relationships, random hookups yes, relationships no... But I'm so busy with work that my social life is minimal at best.
