About Me

I'm in New York by way of Boston by way of Denver. I talk extremely fast and I know it. I used to play with mice for a living, now I work for The Man. I love to dance but not in clubs. I am learning that the no plan plan always leads to more fun but I have a hard time believing that it will. I'm sometimes too serious but I appreciate the little things in life, like socks and underwear. I'm very close with my family, and cherish our yearly trip to Bethany Beach. I want to read more, learn to cook a little better, travel to Morocco (and else where) and learn to skateboard.
