About Me

I’m originally from New England. Typically, I’m the type of person who enjoys connecting with people and growing my network. I do well in big crowds, and I'm not shy. I can be outspoken depending on how comfortable I am. I don't mind taking the lead in a group. My personality traits lean on the analytical and driver.

Even though I do consider myself a sociable person who enjoys working with people, I also enjoy my alone time to focus, recharge, and think.

I’m both a visual and kinesthetic learner. This means I understand things by seeing them, practicing them, and repeating them. Understanding how I learn helps me plan how I approach things

If there’s one thing I’d like to improve about myself, it would be my handwriting.

I like technology and how it changes the world. I’m not religious at all; I respect everyone’s religion and choices. I do believe there’s more to life than what we currently understand. I trust in facts and probability.

Education

I’ve always been the kind of person who enjoys learning a little bit of everything. I’ve studied psychology, sociology, anthropology, substance abuse, technical support, networking, science, business, art history, English, communication, and more. Each subject interested me in a different way, and I never felt like I wanted to limit myself to just one field.

At the time I was choosing my degree, I realized something about myself—I like variety. Liberal Studies made sense for me because it allowed me to explore many areas instead of forcing myself into only one.

I sometimes explain it with a simple example. I love Chinese food, but sometimes I want pizza too. I wouldn’t want to eat the same thing for the rest of my life. Learning is the same way for me. I enjoy exploring different ideas, perspectives, and skills.

That curiosity and openness to different fields is a big part of my personality and how I approach both work and life.

Social Personality

I’m the kind of person who makes decisions and sticks with them. I’m ok with taking the lead when something needs direction, and I focus on getting real results. I approach challenges with determination.

Respect matters to me. I do my best to treat people well and work respectfully with others. I collaborate well, but I also set clear boundaries when needed. I don’t respond well to name-calling, sarcasm, bullying, mocking, patronizing, or condescending tone. I don’t go around making jokes at other people’s expense and I expect the same in return.

I’m not afraid to apologize when I’m in the wrong. I recognize that sometimes making mistakes is part of being life. If, I realize I’ve said something out of line or used poor choice words that could be misinterpreted, I confront it immediately and try to correct it. I don't think saying sorry isn’t a sign of weakness to me, it's a way for me to become a better person.

Ever since I was a kid, I would stick up for people who couldn't do it for themselves, and even now as an adult, I still follow those principles; people don't change just cause they get older. I don't like abuse in any form and I believe those fall under verbal abuse.

I don’t mind small talk and laughs, but I’m the kind of person who really enjoys talking about ideas, solving problems, and talking about meaningful stuff.

Other than the occasional glass of wine, I don’t drink or smoke ~ not my thang. I would rather listen to music and do stuff on the computer.

Community Overview

Throughout my life, I’ve been shaped by the people I’ve met, the relationships I’ve built, and the experiences that pushed me to grow. I would say I grew up in rough neighborhoods. I have witnessed many great things in life and also bad things. I’ve learned from mentors with formal education and from others with no education at all, but each one had something valuable to offer. Along the way, I’ve picked up lessons from mechanics, plumbers, electricians, painters, roofers, counselors, computer techs, worshippers, lawyers, politicians, DJs, rappers, graffiti artists, barbers, addicts, and hustlers. Some of these people are no longer part of my life, but their influence stuck with me and taught me something that still matters.

My Life’s lessons haven’t come from classrooms or job titles only. They’ve come from the relationships I've had, conversations with people that opened my mind, online gaming, and everyday moments that forced me to think. Some of the most important lessons in my life have also come from very bad situations I’ve lived through or witnessed firsthand. Every person I’ve crossed paths with, whether for a moment or a lifetime, has left an imprint on my values, my work ethic, and how I move through the world. It's not pretty, but that's the reality of my life.

Progress Through Adversity

A few years ago, I suffered a brutal, life-altering accident. After the two painful operations back to back, doctors recommended six months to a year recovery. I was immobile, but I knew I could not sit around idle. I did not take the pain meds because I did not want to be zooned out. I did not want to become addicted; I tolerated that pain raw.

Instead of spending my recovery time inactive, I figured this would probably be the perfect time to go back to school and finish my degree. The next day, out of the hospital, that is what I did. It wasn’t an easy process at all. There were days when I was in such pain and fatigue, but somehow just did it; little by little, and I just... did the work.

This was a major turning point in my life. An unexpected detour ultimately became the driving force that pushed me to complete my academic journey.

I hope my experience can inspire others to find strength in unexpected places and turn difficult chapters into achievements.
