About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to elegantly process increasingly large amounts of information

ABOUT ME

to be honest i'm often aloof and irritable. i find it hard to have fun sometimes, even though i want to! luckily, i am unfailingly polite and i tend to be in a grand mood when traveling, so very little of my terrible disposition should actually show through.

on the other hand, i *love* to talk about anything and am super curious about everything. mild obsession with things foreign and exotic.

PHILOSOPHY

i think it's really important to admit it when you don't know stuff. "i don't know" is like, my favorite sentence.

Interests

narration, ethnography, eastern christanity, levant culture, ancient battles, cinema, meter in poetry, bayseian probability, experimental economics
