Welcome to Brazen Careerist!

About Me

I was born and raised in the midwest, and somehow find myself trapped in Indiana. I moved back in with my parents after living in Chicago, and it is completely dreadful. But I make it work, and can't wait to get back to the big city life. I am a blogger, an activist, and a recessionista. I aspire to be an attorney, but before I venture on the law school path I have decided to move accross the globe and volunteer with the Peace Corps. I will be leaving for Asia in July of 2010. But until then, I will enjoy shopping, laughing, and all of the celebrity gossip I can get my hands on!
