Here's where I guess I get to tell you all more about me. In case you were curious or something. I was born and raised in the Metro DC area. My dad brought me up with Star Trek so I have been watching since I can remember. I also enjoy writing. My first college degree was in Liberal Arts; I studied Poetry and Music before switching over to Business. Now I work in Human Resources, specifically specializing in Staffing and Employee relations. Basically I'm the person who does the hiring, the firing, and the babysitting between those two points. I have been veg for 1 1/2 years, which has resulted in much joking from my friends on the Apollo. Because I work in a stressful industry, I am big on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I enjoy practicing Hot Yoga throughout the week to get a great workout while relieving stress. When I am not working at my full time job or working out, I am also in the process of opening up a business with my best friend. I also do quite a bit of volunteer work whenever possible because I believe in giving back. | Here's where I guess I get to tell you all more about me. In case you were curious or something.

Basically I'm the person who does the hiring, the firing, and the babysitting between those two points, although in my current position I mostly focus on interviewing, hiring, and placing people on job orders.

I mentor college students in my field as well as volunteer to teach people how to eat healthier (obesity and diabetes are rampant in the South!!) | ||
Those who know me, whether in RL or in OOC chats, know that I have a strange sense of humor, which is a genetic trait apparently because everyone on the one side of my family has the very same sense of humor. Those who know me in RL also know that I have a strange addiction to dying my hair. Most of my friends have never seen my natural hair color. That is an extremely sad fact. I | Those who know me, whether in RL or in OOC chats, know that I have a strange (to put it nicely) sense of humor, which is a genetic trait apparently because everyone on the one side of my family has the very same sense of humor. Those who know me in RL also know that I have a strange addiction to dying my hair. Most of my friends have never seen my natural hair color. That is an extremely sad fact. I usually end up back to my red hair, though. | ||
Sometimes I enjoy making people uncomfortable. I have no idea where this comes from, but I find it highly amusing. | |||
While I tend to read a lot of sci-fi/fantasy or business books, currently I am reading "Little House: The First Five Novels" (I am on the first of the five, which is "Little House in the Big Woods"). | CURRENT HAIR COLOR: BLONDE (Check back for changes as not too long ago it was red!) | ||
Sometimes I enjoy making people uncomfortable. I have no idea where this comes from, but I find it highly amusing. I typically do this by saying slightly inappropriate things and seeing how people react. | |||
While I tend to read a lot of sci-fi/fantasy or business books, currently I am reading "Little House: The First Five Novels" (I am on the first of the five, which is "Little House in the Big Woods"). I do wish I had more time to read, but as of late, most of my reading has been limited to reading posts. I am also attempting to write a story for my own leisure (Fun fact- part of my inspiration to join the fleet was to increase my typing speeds again. The last time I posted on a ship I was typing well over 100 wpm and I had been down to 40 wpm. I'm now about 60 wpm, so I am on my way!) | |||
