About Me

Just keep swimming.

I'm an introvert who loves reading and expanding my knowledge. I love spending time outdoors with my dogs as well as adventures and traveling. I enjoy spending time with my friends & family. I enjoy going to concerts, my favorite band is Rammstein. Me and my friends enjoy going to conventions and cosplaying. My favorite group cosplay we did were characters from Naruto, I dressed up as a female Kakashi.

I have an interest in the sciences. Specifically, psychology, forensics, environmental science, and evolution. How can we better understand how we came to be here and what innovative ways can we mitigate the destruction that we are causing our planet?

I also have an interest in law and crime, my interest in psychology and forensics ties into these two as well. What drives a person to commit heinous crimes? Nature vs. Nurture? In terms of drug laws. Shouldn't we rehabilitate offenders instead of criminalizing them?
