Keepes, CJ
I’m in my final term at SOU and still haven’t figured out how to write a bio. In fact, I’m not even good at writing bios for my Instagram (@cj_keepes) or my Twitter (@cj_keepes). I wish I could say bios are difficult for me because I’m a bona fide renaissance man with interest and talents too vast and varied to count but that would be untrue. Really, I feel like bios are difficult for me because I don’t like talking about who I am—I like showing people who I am. I show people who I am by working hard, being kind, having a sense of humor about myself and always communicating well with others. I genuinely look forward to working with new people and cannot wait to see what all of us can accomplish together.
If you are looking for more information about me here are some tidbits; I LOVE movies and always enjoy giving Netflix recommendations to people. Sports have always been a big part of my life, in particular basketball and running. Because of my previous involvement in sports, I continue to enjoy working in teams. I am a photographer on the side, I find this hobby to be extremely relaxing. This is my last term at SOU (I may come back for grad school).
Thanks for reading about me. However, as I mentioned, I like showing people who I am more. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have. I would love to get to know you better.
