I need to finish up my resume and start getting it out there. I'm hoping the UK, Chicago or Boston. But I'm open to anywhere, which helps

:edit: on a somewhat related note, my stepmom just became an Irish citizen, which means technically, my dad could too. I think that would automatically make me a citizen even though I've never been to Ireland and have no Irish ancestry :thinking:
