I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm originally from Lima, Peru (where we speak Spanish, NOT Peruvian, like some people think). I came here to Michigan State University for my MBA, which I already finished in December. Next up? Moving out to Pittsburgh to start a new job.I live with my jealous wife, Leanne, who is making me update my profile, given the surprisingly high amount of female friend requests I have been receiving... (haha just joking). My wife is pretty AND smart. A real sweetheart from the heartland.Soccer (the real FOOTball) is my favorite sport, even though I wasn't blessed with the talent to play it well - not to mention that I am an old-timer who couldn't play for more than 5 minutes if I tried (I could be the goalie, though). My team is Sporting Cristal, inherited from my family who have been fans forever. You can change your cars, you can change your house, you can change anything but your soccer team.
