"Go forth and set the world on fire!" — St. Ignatius of Loyola
Hi! My name is Jerry and I am a resident of Chicago, Illinois in the far north neighborhoods of Rogers Park and Edgewater. I am a student of sociology at Loyola University Chicago and am a part-time educator. An expatriate of Hawaii, I was raised in the Salt Lake suburb of Honolulu where I graduated from Moanalua High School.
