I have lived my whole life in California, although I've traveled all over the world, and I went to school in Southern California...which is pretty far away!
I love dogs, nature, outdoors, learning, gadgets. I used to be a computer engineer, but now I may be retired. We'll see. I worked hard for a while, but I realize how lucky I am to be able to choose retirement.
I try to make the best of it with stuff like giving presentations to school kids about honeybees and being a good friend.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: The Shins (especially the The Shins station on Pandora), Green Day, the Lumineers, Led Zeppelin, recently Ed Sheeran and Vampire Weekend.
Garden State (partially because it has a lot of music by The Shins). Raising Arizona, my first love. Love Actually, the sweetest movie ever.
Books: I read a lot of science fiction. I probably have read or have an opinion on any science fiction or fantasy book you can think of. http://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/meetingsarah.html

For nonfiction, I made some life changes after reading Michael Pollan's books. And I love books like Freakanomics: using science and math to understand things in new ways.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I collect swarms of honeybees when they appear in people's backyards. I've collected over 100 bee swarms and relocated a dozen or more hives since I've been doing it. I am listed as a swarm collector by my local bee guild, of which I am the co-chair of the education committee! I occasionally give talks on bees to kids and adults.

教，学，和分享

I love to share knowledge about beekeeping, home brewing, raising chickens, hydroponics, aquaponics, gardening, and similar pursuits.
