About me: My parents moved from the Philippines to a beautiful southern neighborhood outside Atlanta, Georgia... Being the "first-generation" in America was probably confusing at first and as I've gotten older, I've felt incredibly lucky to have had the best of both worlds.
Often times, I throw my friends off because these cultures are so strikingly different from one another - at least, I try to apply the most positive aspects of each to my own life and learn as I go.
So, I'm grounded, natural, down-to-earth, open-minded and accepting of others, love to spend time traveling in third-world countries, backpacking for months, going sailing, SCUBA diving, camping/hiking, and I'm also driven to succeed and love getting dressed up, going to cocktail parties and talking business and investments. I believe everything will just work out and I know it will...
