Who I Am
Mark Turner


Hi, everyone! I'm Mark Turner. I'm 23 years old, and I live in an apartment with two friends. I work in a large company, and I don't have a lot of free time during the week. In the evenings, I watch TV or play video games with my friends. On weekends, I have more time and I like running and playing basketball. I also like going to the movies. My friends say I'm funny, and I agree! I think I'm confident and love meeting new people. I guess I'm an extrovert.
