About Me:I ran off to UT in '98. I became a Communication Studies student and loved it. I joined the UT speech team as soon as I got there and traveled and competed on the weekends. I then joined up with a small student-run debate team called "Texas Public Debate." We weren't in any way funded by UT and were a small student-run team. We had a blast competing all over the country, although mostly in Texas. Met some lifetime friends and got real pleasure out of competing every weekend. After a couple of years in undergrad, I decided to go to law school. I joined up with Beta Alpha Rho, a pre-law society. I competed in mock trial competitions and and even ran one one semester. I held various officer positions and became President in my last semester at UT, which was May 2002. I'm now working at a civil litigation boutique firm downtown reviewing documents in a case that excites me and makes me look forward to Mondays. It sounds crazy, but no one has ever accused me of being run-of-the-mil
Activities:Taking my Golden Retriever to the dog park; Reading, writing and blogging; Keeping it real
Beliefs:I don't believe in beliefs.
Books:Law school killed my desire to read books, but I read a lot of news online. And for entertainment? YouTube.
Movies:Anything with Will Ferrell, except "Kicking and Screaming, " which left me wanting to do the same. Subtle, low-budget comedies, like Rushmore and Napoleon Dynamite And some serious stuff such as: The Lion in Winter, The Graduate, Cybil, Silence of the Lambs, and Misery
Music:Janis Joplin, Willie Nelson, Tori Amos, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Roy Orbison, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, The Ditty Bops, Missy Elliot, Outkast, and a lot of music from musicals...I'm a bit eclectic in my musical tastes.

Sports Teams:Hookem!
TV Shows:I don't have cable, because I never watched it when I did.
