...the University, I'm usually in class, studying, hanging out with my friends, or at club meetings! In my free time, I love to breakdance, write poetry, debate politics and economics, and participate in practically every nerdy endeavor possible (huge Star Wars fan!!).

My enthusiasm for expression also carries over into my love for helping others achieve a level of expression within themselves that they didn't know existed.
