My Photo
Name:Steven "Steveareno" Tilley
Location:Baton Rouge, Louisiana, United States

I have, with the help of family and friends, overcome adversity to earn a Masters of Public Administration(MPA) from E.J. Ours College of Business Administration -- Louisiana State University in May 2004. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Northwestern State University of Louisiana, December 1997. I work at the State Capitol - when the legislature is in session I Work on the House Journal. When It is not in session I work with the House Sergeant-At-Arms office. Usually they have me on the observation deck of the State Capitol keeping folks from throwing things off the State Capitol(pennies, spit, kids, Etc.) For the most part I have been naturally shy for most of my life. Over the past couple of years I have stared to come out my shell and have learned not to take life too seriously and to enjoy being single. I spend my free time on photography, surfing the web, listening to my small but eclectic music collection, going out with my friends, dancing, Georging, or working on one of my web sites.
