My Interests

Well obviously acting, writing, and anything entertainment based. I love outdoorsy stuff too though, like jetskiing, fishing, anything woodsy. I am all about making people laugh, I love my friends around me and always am interviewing more. ha!I study the martial arts, specifically the Shotokan style of Karate at the Shotojuku dojo in Queens. www.shotojuku.com Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private schools, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and the state forever separate. -Ulysses S. GrantI care deeply about Truth.

I'd like to meet:

I like to meet anyone, I am open to all types of people no matter what their political, social, business background is. I may have strong opinions but that doesn't stop me from enjoying all different kinds of people. Lifes too short to block people out. Also looking to meet people in all parts the industry.
