About Me

I study an awful lot, I coach baseball, I sing really loud to my random music in the car, and I hate talking on the phone. I wear sports jerseys almost everyday with black tennis shoes and I genuinely enjoy doing math. When I grow up, I will teach high school math and hopefully creative writing, coach baseball some more, treat my wife like a queen, teach my kids to bat and throw lefthanded, and someday build a baseball field in my backyard. If you aren't intrigued by anything in the last two sentences, it's cool: I don't talk to a lot of people anyhow.AIM: maxjsteele
