Hello Everyone! My name is Chris. I am on the path to completing my BA. I am continuing on the road to improve myself and keep a balanced life. I can often be found in the open air with the wind in my hair, and a rumble in my seat. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and learning in an open discussion environment. This is my first online class so I'm still trying to learn the ropes. See you on the boards!
