About Me

Robert
Chicago, IL, United States
My name is Robert. I am a business student majoring in Economics at the University of Illinois at Chicago. I’m a pretty relaxed guy most of the time, though I get a passionate at times just like everyone else. I’m a big fan of life in general: every day is a gift and should be highly valued. I like to spend my precious time with my friends and on my great loves of economics and international relations. I'm also a "right-leaning" individual. Stick around and you'll see what I mean. Get to know me in real-life, and you'll know why they call ENTJs the "Field Marshals" of the world
