CURRENT MISSION

To exact steely-eyed revenge on the mosquito that bit my infant daughter...

ABOUT ME

I'm an American guy currently studying in Europe for my MD and PhD degrees. I am married to a wonderful, classically-trained soprano, and we have two little girls, ages 5 and newborn. I enjoy seeing new places and exploring SE Europe with my family, although sometimes I also travel alone for school and work.
I'm quite a laid-back person most of the time, and can be comfortable in a variety of venues and with a diverse assortment of people. I neither smoke nor drink, but I am perhaps a little bit addicted to really good chocolate.

PHILOSOPHY

Wow... too deep for this forum, maybe?
