If you've ever wanted to truly get to know me
(I'm sure you haven't but here we go),
Let's buckle in for 20 of the most random facts…

  1. Hanson, Hamilton, and T Swift lyrics constantly occupy my mind

  2. I am a nerd in every sense of the term

  3. I could eat pizza every day for the rest of my life

  4. My Hogwarts house is Ravenclaw

  5. My patronus would be a horse

  6. If I could have a superpower, I’d be invisible or fly

  7. Marvel is far superior to DC

  8. My favorite D&D class to play is a Ranger, and my favorite spell to use with it would be Hunter’s Mark

  9. I love Hanson so much that I made sure my kids’ middle initials were ITZ.

  10. Name Nerd ❤️💚💙

  11. #EmoKidForLife. I’m definitely a scene kid still at heart.

  12. If you can’t go from Hanson to Def Leppard to Sleep Token to Taylor Swift to Hit the Lights to Tech N9ne to Britney Spears, then you won’t wanna ride with me. I thoroughly enjoy my 80s hair bands, 90s pop, 00s emo, and pretty much everything in between.

  13. I still stand by my forever statement that pro wrestling is an athletic soap opera

  14. [but I still love it now anyway]

  15. And if I were a professional wrestler, I'd have to be a heel

  16. Married my best friend in May of 2023 after being together since August of 2012

  17. Current favorite sitcom is Ghosts [USA] and my favorite characters are either Trevor, Hetty, or Flower

  18. My most favorite movie of all-time is Mel Gibson’s ‘Apocalypto’ (2006)

  19. I love cannabis and teaching people everything I know about all of it

  20. In the Game of Thrones universe, I'd be Jon Snow - I don't know anything, I'm adopted from a far away place and dumped in the US Winterfell equivalent that is Michigan, and my prophetic backstory meant fuck all to my actual life 🙄🤣
