---

I'm a 21 year old male born and raised in New York City while my parents are Europeans making me the first American-Born.
Education

From grades K-8 I attended a Catholic Grammar School in Brooklyn.

For High-School attended a private all boy-academy in Manhattan run jointly by an Order of Priests and the U.S. R.O.T.C. based around the French education system to cater to a large amount of European students who's parents worked within the various foreign government agencies in N.Y.C. such as embassies and consulates.

I attended St. John's University (NYC) as an Undergraduate with Majors in Philosophy/Classical Language and a minor in psychology(only 16 credits). To various degrees I have various levels of command over Italian/French/Latin and Ancient Greek.

I currently reside in Rome, Italy where I am pursuing a specialized Philosophy Degree in the areas of Metaphysics and Aesthetics with special focus on the arts, beauty and the "good". Hopefully if the money does not run out I'd like to go for my Ph.D but realistically I may need to teach at university while working on my doctoral thesis which could slow it down by a few years.

Sports & Other Activities

Sport wise I played tennis, golf and baseball (which I'm terrible at) and also competed in the shooting sports rifle and archery. I also did very briefly equestrian (which I was sub-par at best with) where I was in fact injured. In the J.R.O.T.C. I reached the rank of Cadet Captain before graduation but opted to not consider Military Service after college.

My other activities included the Drama Guild, Choir and the Student Congress (an inter-school mock U.S. Congress/Debate Organization in N.Y.C.) Instrument wise I'm not that talented while I can read music and did study the bass and piano briefly.

Employment

Job wise, I have been an archery instructor, a rifle instructor, a Starbucks barista, a librarian and a summer-school teacher (latin). I've also worked as a volunteer for the Republican National Committee save these last two years now that I reside in Europe.

Interests & and Hobbies

Personal interests...I have a passion for cinema that ties into my current studies, I also camp when and where-ever I can (while not recently due to school), and I have an arm-chair interest in architecture (also tied to my current studies of aesthetics) Generally I spend most of my time in NYC and Roma going to smaller music clubs, dinner/lunch and to random concerts or shows.

Not really a large video game person while I play the "Total War" series, Ultima Online, Spore and Rock-Band/Guitar Hero. Music wise, punk, hardcore punk, indie, rock and alternative as well as a lot of classical music.
My favorite book is "The Divine Comedy" by Dante. My favorite movies are Citizen Cane and Fatso. I also like some modern fiction.

Started playing UO in 2000.
