I am a very outgoing guy and I love to talk. Mostly I enjoy asking questions. i feel the two ways to best learn new things about people and places are to ask questions and explore it yourself. I love to read but would rather see things for myself. I love to laugh. It is very important to me to see humor in everyday life situations. Life is too stressful and ridiculous (especially in our current political environment) to not smile it off here and there. I love going out dancing (mostly to old school hip hop). Music is extremely important to me as well. I sang for many years growing up and I also play guitar and piano, though not so well. I am a middle school teacher in East Oakland. I am liberal minded and daily have to confront the horror of the system of education in our country. I not a hard core liberal who goes to every protest but I care about people who are less fortunate then myself.
