About Me

Please bear with me as I am updating my profile layout and working out the kinks...Thank you... :)
I was born and raised in the great city of Houston in the great state of Texas. :) I now live in Leavenworth, Kansas where "It's freezing!" actually means that it is at or below 32 degrees fahrenheit! ...unlike Houston where "It's freezing!" means that it is below 70! :) Despite the greuling cold temperatures and the lack of a nearby shoreline, I do actually like it up here. I have grown a lot since I moved up here and have settled into an amazingly perfect-for-me career in Operations Research (it is a math related career that involves analyzing, strategizing, programing/modeling...lots of cool stuff...).
My family is a very important part of my life. If I don't see them at least once I week I feel like I haven't seen them in FOREVER. My sister still lives in the Greater Houston area and one of my brothers lives in NYC. Needless to say, I don't see them every week. So, I basically always feel like it has been waaaayyyy toooooooooo long since I have seen them. As far as the family I have nearby, though...we spend time together pretty regularly.
Personality-wise, I am a superhero and a kid at heart. :) There is a definite artsy side to me as well as a very technical / logical side...I strive for the best of both worlds. :)
Also, education is very important to me. I am a big fan of life-long learning and continually seek to learn new things. One day, I will have a PhD...I am still not sure what in...but the details all get worked out along the way. :) My current educational background is:
Kansas State University, Manhattan KS Alumnus 2005 to 2007 - Master of Science in Operations Research
University of Saint Thomas, Houston TX, Alumnus 1997 to 2001 - Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics with a minor in Theology
Mount Carmel High School, Houston TX Alumnus 1996 to 1997 - high school diploma
Incarnate Word Academy, Houston TX attended 1993 to 1995
Saint Christopher's Catholic Grade School, Houston TX attended 1989 to 1993
Queen of Peace Catholic Grade School, Houston TX attended 1984 to 1989..
