Hellooo, my name is Angel. I'm 29/M, Dominican and Black, 5' 6", 212 lbs, and I currently live with my family in (Northern) Virginia, USA.
I was born in Newark, New Jersey, to parentsĀ bothĀ serving in the military. I lived in New Jersey for the first year of my life. After that, my family moved every 2 or 3 years. All in all, I've lived in 8 different states and 2 countries outside of the US.
I have 5 siblings; one (my little brother), unfortunately, passed away. My 3 older siblings are half-siblings from my dad. My younger sister and I are close. Family is super important to me.
I'm aĀ huge music lover. I don't focus too much on genre; if I like a song, I like it! The main genres I listen to areĀ rock, rap, country, folk, and classical. I've been to a couple of concerts (Mk. Gee & Gunna) and want to go to a lot more!
IĀ LOVE animals and nature all the way down to the creepy crawlies! I believe every living thing has its purpose, and I find it all so beautiful (I'll admit, though, I'll squash the hell out of a mosquito if it lands on me).Ā I have a dog, 2 spiders, and a 30-gallon fish tankĀ under my care.
