I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


Pixie, kobold, elf, and sprite,
All are on their rounds tonight;
In the wan moon's silver ray,
Thrives their helter-skelter play.
~Joel Benton
Most of all seasons I love autumn. It should always be autumn and never fall. There is something in the word that conjures falling leaves, brooding rain clouds, night drives tinged with mystery and long conversations over tea. If that makes any sense to you, than you've a picture of who I am.
I'm found in Chicago most of the year, attending an institute to acquire a degree in Theology. I leave behind some of the best friends anyone could ask for every time. At some points it feels like all I'm ever doing is saying goodbye in my life, a constant ending. I take comfort in my long held belief that the only thing that separates friends is time.

"Genius borrows nobly.… Quotation confesses inferiority."
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
