I'm a New Paltz student who is majoring in TV/Radio Production and minoring in Journalism and Theatre Arts. I love music and sports more than most people should and my dream job is being an anchor of SportsCenter. I'm a huge Mets, Red Sox, and Islanders fans and I've been getting more into football. I love to read and look for quotes that make me think. There's nothing better than an intellectual conversation that stems from virtually nothing that makes you stop and think about yourself and who you're conversing with. I'm scared of pretty much everything in the entire world and I'm trying to work on that but failing misterably. I am fortunate enough to have a wonderful scenery while at New Paltz and I'm trying to find the wonderful peace that those mountains bring. I love talking to people but more importantly listening, people's personalities and mannerisms are so interesting to me. I'm a control freak and I pay way to close attention to tiny insignificant details. I love acting and theatre and film and I love to edit and make short films when I have the means. If I could, I would make movies for the rest of my life. I love learning about history and people who dared to make a difference in the world. Right now all I can think about is changing the world, but hopefully I can learn to be ok with changing any little thing and making it better. I've been working at Barnes and Noble for what seems like forever, and as much as I complain, I still seem to make my way back there.
