Sobre Mim
I'm a rebel turned nerd by aging, these days I'm trying to discover new things that makes my consciousness evolve new insights, and I'm finding they're more the simple things: Good sleep, empathy, thankfulness for a springtime Massachusetts breeze...
For my day job, I'm a post-doctoral researcher, and read and write about health economics.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões
An ear to listen, a wit to feel, and a conversation to share that can run the spectrum of the response of Tardigrades to the melting of the polar ice, the latest version of the i-phone, an old movie by Charlie Chaplin, quality vintage and the hoppiness of gourmet beers, the philosophy of Averroes and Aristotle, Persian pistachios, the psychological characters of Dostoevsky novels, the balance of spices in a tikka masala, the characteristics of the Shanghai stock exchange, the impact of overfishing on the quality of Sushi, Kiwi Soccer, and everything in between.
