I love living in Boston- it gives me really great opportunities to go out and have fun with friends, be exposed to culture and great food, and still be within a short drive of most of my family. I especially like exploring my neighborhood since I'm still pretty new to it. When I'm not out, I'm a giant book nerd and I'm always reading something. I am in love with Tivo. Most of my nights out are pretty low-key, but I also like going dancing or sharpening my skills at candlepin or pool. I'll go see almost any kind of live music.

I help college students navigate the exciting world of health insurance and medical care, and try to get them to make healthy decisions. It can be a challenge but it's always interesting.

Quoting movies, remembering totally unimportant details of popular culture, following a recipe (but not necessarily "cooking"), baking, and naming that tune in less than eight notes. I'm also known for my superior Google-fu.

My smile...I am lucky enough to have one of those coveted dimples.

My family, friends, junk food, exercise, books, and music

The future. That could mean what I'll be doing in five years or when my next slice of pizza will be. It depends on the day.

Out with friends having drinks, probably watching whatever game is on or striking up a conversation with whoever happens to be next to us.

I'm kind of emo. But I'm gonna be positive and call it "passionate".

You like good conversation and a dry wit. And oreos.
