    Family: Most of my immediate family lives here in Pittsburgh, my mother, sister, brother-in-law, and niece. My father lives just outside of Waco, TX. I try to get down there about once a year. My mother's side is from Pittsburgh, she was one of 13 children, which means I have lots and lots of family (I think 26 cousins). About half of them live here in Pittsburgh and the other half are scattered about the US. My father's side is from Texas, mostly Amarillo, where I was born. He only has 2 sisters, but they're equally important. My birth-family (meaning I'm adopted) is mostly from Amarillo also, who I also get to visit about once a year since I've met them.

    Home Country: U.S.A.
