If one were to send out a promo on my personality as if I were a luxery car on lease, it would consist of the spirit of adventure and the passion for beauty and art from growing up in botoxed California, the critical realism of a New Yorker from living a life among criminals in strange experiences with midgets, and the ambitious academic with a touch of class and clean living from living in Salt Lake City (as the most literate college town in America, I know thermodynamics by metamorphisis). Not to mention an appreciation for nature seeing rain every waking hour in Oregon my first 5 years and more hard knocks living in the very corrupt Pheonix for 1 year.
