Michelle Park’s Summary
Hi. I have had tons of experience in everything from photography to design to dining at fabulous restaurants to project management to team leadership to finding the weirdest possible people on Flickr. I basically love the internet and want to marry it. I hope one day this will become legal so our love can be, in society's eyes, real.
