I live in the Midwest, but once the monster Tsunami comes, I’ll live on a coast. I’m obsessed with being active, I mean Ryan Seacrest style over-committed. I always have been.

I started working at age ten as a child model. I’m not talking JonBenet style nor Ralph Lauren couture. I lived in Southwestern Michigan - Meijer, Sears & JCPenny was more the speed. After I grew out of my good looks and refused to do underwear shoots, I started working at a Butcher Shop.

The place had four grocery aisles. I was an amateur-butcher, master stock-boy and illiterate cashier. I cut steaks and the tip of my finger off. The shoppe was owned by the city’s mayor who eventually hooked me up with a position as assistant assessor. An assessor helps determine your property tax rate. People hate you.

I learned that the most valuable property in the city was in fact the second homes of Chicagoans. In 2003, I moved to Chicago to attended university. While in school I worked in event marketing and part-time at an overly-priced retailer. Currently I’m employed by a independent marketing agency. We work with clients ranging from “Fortune 1000″ to “can’t afford the services”.

The only sport I enjoyed playing was Badminton. Algebra was a road block in my path to mathematician. Letters refused to live harmoniously with numbers in my mind. My senior year of high school, I served as student body president. I was ready to come out, but didn’t for fear of having the position taken away. Don’t fret, I’m so TotesObvi out now.

Now that you’re more acquainted with me, you can get to know my thoughts.
