My Personality Type

Can I be summed up in so few words?

My Study Buddy

I absolutely love animals, I can't imagine where I would be without this silly little guy.

Music Is Life

This is the instrument I play, not well, but well enough to sing along, which is all I care about.

A Recovering Addict

These rooms have saved my life on more than one occasion.

A Recovering Chef

I used to, but I made a decision for my health that I would leave the restaurant industry.

A Recovering Mormon

While I believe spirituality is a personal choice and should be respected, leaving this church was the best thing I ever did for myself besides getting sober.

Hardcore Parkour

Believe it or not, I was sponsored for parkour as a young man, and still enjoy it to this day!

A Singer/Songwriter

I love to sing, and I love to write, together they make my favorite activity. I was even on the Voice and American Idol, though my audition never made it to cable.

Non-binary

Though my gender identity is only a facet of who I am, coming out as non-binary a couple of years ago changed my life immensely for the better.

CPTSD

While I refuse to let my PTSD define me, it's as much a part of me as my arms and legs. And while I continue to grow and learn to cope, I will never be fully cured.
