CURRENT MISSION

To figure things out... and spend as much time outside as possible.

ABOUT ME

I appear to be a physicist... that, among other things, likes to build hiking trail, stack things precariously, read, laze about, and bbq (ah mid-morning beer and sun). Current game plan: get a PhD mainly so I can take free classes, learn as much about the brain as possible, then maybe continue as an academic, or become a reporter, or disappear into the woods.

PHILOSOPHY

Impact the world by being nice to those around you and steeping forward human knowledge. Golden Rule. Etc...

Interests

Good Food. Meeting New People, Capitalizing The First Letters Of Words, Avoiding Actually Doing Work

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've freelanced for the Economist (Science Section). Morgan Freeman called me and some associates a "raucous bunch of miscreants". I climbed Mt Shasta (crampons and everything).
