About Me

I am generally a pretty laid back down to earth person. I love Grassroots and humanitarian orgainzations. I am really into my Christian Faith but i don't consider myself self-righteous. I listen to almost every type of music from folk to hip-hop. I am also open minded to others peoples opinions and veiws i love languages and arts and crafts and different cultures. My image and perspectives are drawn from multiple youth subcultures i have experienced throughout my life so putting on label on me is impossible!!!!
