About me

Gender Male
Industry Student
Occupation Student
Location Washington, DC, United States
Introduction I've had a number of internships and jobs ranging from law firms and non-profit organizations, to the Olympic Committee and newsletter writing. I've studied Economics, but my true interests lay in both medicine and law. I'm still building on my experience in journalism and trying to improve my writing. I'm a fan of the Yankees, the GW Colonials, the New York Jets, the Washington Nationals, the UConn Huskies and the Hartford Whalers. I think Maya Angelou is the most overrated American author/writer of the past fifty years. I've learned that being a old black woman with mediocre writing skills, and a fondness for graphic descriptions of bushy female genitalia automatically nominates you for the Pulitzer Prize. I "Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" should be used as ipicac. What else? I'm jacked. I am pretty moderate in my political beliefs. I believe in a small government that concerns itself with providing only defense, education, roads and public transportation and healthcare; one that interferes in the market minimally--only to implement IB environmental policy, protection against highly unfair power distributions and uses of market power. My favorite food is diet coke.
