Hello. I'm a veteran, and I also worked as a nurse for some years. I have worked with a variety of people in diverse settings (old people in nursing homes, inmates in a jail, dying people in hospice, addicts in treatment centers, etc.) I have lived all around the USA and abroad (Japan for 3 years). I was raised in a dysfunctional family, so I had to "do the work" to become a healthier person. I have diverse interests, from history to astronomy. I like art and music, especially dance music (like Samba and House). I'm a deep thinker, but I also appreciate humor. I currently live in my van.
