I'm a double major in Economics and Political Science and double minor in Business Administration and Finance at the University of Texas in Austin :)
I am a gigantic nerd, I always have been. I love learning, I love asking questions, finding answers, debating those answers... I've been that way as long as I can remember and have absolutely no inclination to change.
I live by 2 rules: First, if you can make me laugh and/or you dance with me, I guarantee we'll get along. I laugh at everything in my life (so much easier than getting upset, and so much healthier, too!). As far as dancing... I spent a great deal of my time between ages 4 and 20 training intensively in dance... ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, modern.. and though that period of my life is over (3 slipped discs in my lumbar spine ended my hope of a professional career), I still take class every week and my absolute favorite thing to go out and do is to go dancing.
As for books... I read a LOT. A lot, a lot, a lot. When I was 10 years old, the first Harry Potter book (Sorcerer's Stone) was released in the United States. It was the first time I was ever inspired to read. I credit JK Rowling and the Harry Potter books with inspiring a generation of which I am honored and incredibly proud to be a part of to learn how to love to read. The Harry Potter books remain some of my most beloved friends, but taught me to open my arms to all sorts of novels, fiction and nonfiction, science fiction and fantasy, biographies... since my first Harry Potter, I've fallen equally in love with Pride and Prejudice, Freakonomics, Ender's Game, The Adventures of Augie March, Atonement, Berlin Stories, White Noise, To Kill a Mockingbird, Herzog, The Great Gatsby..... and so many hundreds of others.
