After a first meet-up, people have told me that they feel like they've known me for years. I'm easy going, confident, kind to others, sassy at the right and wrong times, and usually laughing about something. I've been known to brighten up even my own worst days.

I tend to spend my time with friends, at the computer lab, working out, and being late.

i'm a grad student. and thankful to be one. i love what i'm studying. also spend a lot of time volunteering around boston. a lot.

making people laugh.

biking in cities, cooking/baking from scratch, asking questions, answering questions (I actually had a blog that answered questions people asked me), tutoring adults and kids in math

i read books/journals/textbooks; watch any tv show with a reveal; watch the last 10 minutes of a good game (almost any sport); and i'll catch a movie when it's the social thing to do.
