CURRENT MISSION

Moving to New York City by early spring to start my next chapter!

ABOUT ME

Hello, I'm Chris! I would describe myself as an extroverted introvert - in other words, I enjoy going out and meeting new people, though sometimes prefer to just listen and observe the world from afar.

I've grown up and lived in the Bay Area all my life, though am now moving to New York City very soon.

I have a great sense of humor, love sports and all types of music, and enjoy learning something new everyday. I also believe that no one person is ever entirely right nor wrong...this is a subjective world.

PHILOSOPHY

At this point in my life, I am trying to hinder my reservations and judgements so that I can live more freely and for the moment. I believe that you can always learn from every experience (no matter how small or big), from every mistake and wrongdoing, and from every person you meet. I try more and more to think from others' perspective and embrace the many different cultures and backgrounds we all share with each other.
