About Me

It's tough to describe me in a paragraph. I've been a Marine for the last 8 years and wouldn't trade it for the world. As great as it's been i've finally decided to call it to an end. Now that i'm home I have shifted my focus to my friends.
My friends are number one in my life. I'm the first to go out of my way for a friend in need. After being home in phoenix for about 3 years I think i've finally settled in. I love meeting new people but I'm fairly quiet at first. Once I'm in my comfort zone i tend to open up. I give people the benefit of the doubt and trust everyone until they give me reason not to. Sometimes it backfires but I try not to let that get to me.
I enjoy taking time to listen to current events and keeping up with politics as much as possible. Our government has had a huge impact on my life so i think it's important to stay imformed on where it's taking me next in my civillian life. I have strong opinions and i'm more than willing to share them with anyone who's willing to listen. I don't feel the need to push my ideas on everyone around me but I make it pretty obvious when I don't agree with what someone has to say.
If there's anything else you want to know, just ask!!
