About
Writing about yourself in an online social network feels a bit...weird, doesn't it? It's one part advertisement, one part self-expression, and one part "let's be cautious lest folks such as potential employers and stalkers find my profile." :)
In light of that, I am relatively laid back and love to converse with people. Passions in my life include the pursuit of knowledge, cooking, running, art & design, photography, and sports (american football in particular). Ultimate frisbee was my sport of choice until I moved to a locale with no organized summer league and tore my Achilles. Now it's just recreational running and some frisbee golf here and there.
I have a pet dog who eats every meal as though she hasn't eaten in centuries. She's great at sleeping like a cat (meaning 16 hours a day) and pines after a neighborhood dog named Harvey. All in all, she's fun to have around.
So that's all for now I suppose. If you feel like chatting, feel free to drop me a line.
