Talk Nerdy to Me

Pay it
Forward

2 value - Virtual OK - Posted Apr 19, 2017

I will listen to your fandom/geekiness/nerdiness and be a fan with you! I will list some things I really like here, but in order to regulate this and not get overwhelmed, let's limit it to one topic an hour chat. I will list some things I'm a fan of but if there's something else you want to talk about, I'm open. I'm a fan of Legend of Zelda, Pikmin, Pokemon, Kingdom Hearts and other games. I like anime like Naruto, Digimon, Avatar: The Last Airbender and others. Big Disney fan. I like fantasy books and series. I have a soft spot for sports teams in the Bay Area and Utah. I love music and know most popular artists and songs (not the biggest country, rap, hip hop or R&B fan though). I watch a lot of TV and have seen a ton of crime- dramas, legal dramas, sitcoms, and many episodes of Friends, Scrubs, Lie to Me, Fringe, House, Grey's Anatomy, and others. I'm also a foodie, choir boy, theatre nerd, and do art in my spare time. I'm fascinated with other cultures and languages! There's a lot I'm interested in.

Training & Qualifications


I am a child of the 90's. I grew up watching Saturday morning cartoons and playing video games. I work at a bookstore and read a lot. Sang all through school and have been in a few plays. Helped my Dad with his wedding DJ business several times. I have an insatiable curiosity.

Availability & Preferences


Afternoons (MST) and weekends.

Trading Preference: Pay it forward – pass on the good deed!

About Jordan Gardner

I'm a professional interpreter certified by the State of Utah with a degree in ASL/English Interpreting. I first learned ASL in high school and went on to serve a two year volunteer mission for the Ch...urch of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the California San Jose Mission covering the San Francisco Bay Area. I was assigned to teach in ASL, English, and Tongan, and picked up a few words in those languages as well as Mandarin, Tagalog, Hindi, and Telugu. I love languages and the arts. In school I sang and did musical theater as well as took many art classes. I recently was given a ukulele and have been trying to learn to play that as well as the piano. I'm a Utah native and currently live in Ogden surrounded by mountains. I love music, especially the kinds of sounds that you don't hear everyday. People are amazing and I love being around them, but I can also be content by myself. I grew up in a small town and would regularly visit an even smaller town called Grouse Creek, in Utah. (The population is probably less than 200 people.) I understand the small town mentality and like that I can get away from the world there, but I think I'm more of a city person. There's so much to do, places to go, food to eat, and more diversity in cities that call to me. On the mission and since being home, I've driven a lot. For a month I drove two to four hours everyday to get to my internship and school. At first it was kind of rough, but when I got some audio books, I got to where I enjoyed my time in the car. After that month and a drive to California and back, now I can go hours in the car no problem.show more
