I am successful and respected in my field. I am ambitious, generous, thoughtful, and spontaneous. I work at the University of Western Sydney in the School of Social Sciences and Psychology but grew up in the USA. My story is long and winding. It has its ups and downs. But I never give up. I always endure. I always find a way. Not sure where those traits came from but I have always been like this. It serves me well in my career. I have the fortune to live alone, work mostly from home, and to travel almost as I see fit. I am looking to change the nature of my weekends and sometimes, weekdays. I go to the gym 4 times per week and train martial arts 2 times per week. I started training martial arts when I was 18 and never stopped. You might describe me as a dog...cuddly, loyal, and responsive...not what you were thinking huh?
