About Me

I have no idea how people would describe me. I suppose you can read the comments below and get a somewhat skewed view of my persona. I love music, my ipod is my best friend. I love travelling, but even if I didn't, I'm in an airplane at least once a month. I was born in Frankfurt, Germany, then moved to Michigan, then Chicago, grew up in L.A., went to higschool in FL, went to Providence College in RI, and now I'm in NYC trying to make a dollar and a cent in the rat race. That's the general background, my website is partically.com if you'd like to take a peek.

Squarepusher told me not to swear
