I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm the ultimate hybrid: born in France, raised in France and the US, double majoring in Music and Business (in MIS, the "business/computer double major"). I play saxophone, and dabble in piano and singing. I play lots of video games, have read through the entire Wheel of Time series (and a whole lot more), and yet somehow would never describe myself as antisocial... I'm a Catholic, a Sinfonian, a nerd, and if you still don't know who I am by now, we've obviously never met. =P

My Interests

St. Germain!

Music:

Yes

Movies:

Television:

Books:

Heroes:

Christ, Michael Brecker, Ossian E. Mills, David Lins, John Coltrane, Joe Zawinul, Rene Barjavel, JRR Tolkien, Charles Mingus, CS Lewis to name a few in no particular order...

Thank you, Joe Zawinul

Excitement
