About Me

    I recently moved to Brighton from Topsfield, getting a taste of "city living." I work second shift tech support for the State Police. My favorite style of beer is IPA. I'm also developing a taste for Bourbon and Scotch. I used to be really good at guitar and I would play non-stop, but working full-time has put an end to that. Though, I still like to play when I can. On the weekends, I enjoy laid-back evenings in the company of close friends, but going out to bars around Boston is also a good time. I abhor clubs. I love to ski. I drink my coffee black. I drink my whiskey "neat." I love nearly all styles of music.
