About 

I'm an eager learner and am always looking for ways to grow. I love the outdoors. On weekends you can find me wandering around Central Park with my gaze fixed to the tree tops as I look for birds. I also enjoy scrolling through Craigslist hoping to find beautiful furniture to restore. As such, my apartment is not lacking in good seating options. Finally, I'm someone who enjoys contributing to meaningful endeavors, and am always trying to look on the bright side of life.
