About Me

My name is Joe and I'm a recent college graduate trying to find my place in the world. I haven't had the typical upraising but thankfully it has influenced me in being (or trying to be) a humble and thoughtful person. I would describe myself as the guy next door. I'm probably one of the nicest guys you could ever get to know.As I mentioned, I'm a recent college graduate. I received my BS in Communication from East Carolina University where I concentrated in media production. One day I'd like to get into the biz. It takes a lot of work but I'm hoping I'll pull it off one day.I work at Target as a Team Leader for Men's and Shoes. It's growing on me but the people there are pretty awesome and are part of the reason why I continue to go day after day.I'm an amateur photographer. I use a typical Canon point and shoot but it serves me well. I also enjoy reading good books. Like most of the world, I was hooked on Harry Potter. Now I'm trying to find something new. I'm an avid chatter online. I have yahoo, aim, and msn so if you think I'm a pretty interesting person or you'd like to check out some of my photos, send me a message and let's chat.
