My life is driven by the things I am passionate about: my family, my dog, my friends, my hobbies, even my work (though I sometimes wish this last one wasn't quite the all-consuming focus it tends to be)... I'm an optimist, a bit of an idealist, and an obsessive perfectionist. I'm a genuinely caring, happy person, and though my impact may vary from person to person, my goal is to better the lives of those around me.
