About Me

I'm currently enrolled at Hawaii Pacific University on the island of Oahu, where I study Marine Biology. I don't really know what I'm going to do with a marine biology degree, but I'm having fun with it. I'm originally from D.U.M.B.O. (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), where I've lived all my life before going to college in Hawaii.

My Interests

Fish, Marine Bio, swimming, snorkeling, beach bumming, reading, movies, learning spanish, eating, friends, family (never a dull moment), boats, driving, bodyboarding, hiking, New York City, and anything else that can keep me entertained for more than 10 minutes.

I'd like to meet:

Jacques Cousteau and the guy who invented the Slinky.
