I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm one of those people you can talk to in line at the grocery store. I most likely won't start the conversation as I wouldn't want to intrude your personal bubble, but I would be happy to hold up my end of the conversation. The only time I'd pop that bubble is to give you a compliment. Everyone loves a sincere compliment and I'm a firm believer of random acts of kindness.

I'm interested is so much that I couldn't just sum it up in a few words. I'm continuously trying to learn and grow as a person. I enjoying being with people that can teach me something new, weather it's trying new food or listening to a new band.

My mom is my hero. How could I not respect a woman who came to this country without knowing the language, learn it w/out formal instruction, become an engineer w/out schooling, and start her own businesses? She is my foundation of love, growth, inspiration, and exsistance.I admire those who can make an indelible imprint on the world for the better. People who took risks to make change. People who overcome incredible odds. People with goals and determination.
