About

I grew up in Grand Rapids, Michigan. I have a very outgoing and laid back personality. I am always comfortable in any setting and I enjoy meeting new people and making new friends. I also am very hard-working and self-motivated. I like to listen to other people and I enjoy helping others in need. I am always looking to meet new people and surround myself with great people. I always try to make the most of any situation to make sure that everyone around me has a smile on their face.
