Go West Young Man

I have recently embarked on a high adventure. Leaving Michigan, the only state I've ever called home, I traveled to the opposite corner of the United States, away from friends, family, girlfriend, and most every mentor I've known in 21 years.

This blog serves as a record of my triumphs, failures, and reflections. Though the prospect of finding new friends and community in Arizona is exciting, I happily remember that I am the product of so much love from my family in Michigan and from friends now spread literally  nation- and worldwide in the post-college diaspora. One worry is that as I settle into a professional schedule there will not be enough time to write, email, or converse with everyone I wish to keep in contact with. Hopefully, this blog will be one form of communication free from the limitations of schedules and time zones.
