CURRENT MISSION

Excavate an ancient Roman coin (update: mission accomplished!)

ABOUT ME

I'm currently a student at Stanford University in California, studying a multitude of things including psychology and ancient history. This summer I'm working to design a custom major called "Human Motivation" that blends these interests.

My friends know me as a relaxed, focused person. I like to spend my time learning, soaking in my environment, chilling, getting to know people, and working on the several web businesses I run.

I also play baseball for Stanford, although I've been injured for a year and a half now. The bright side of the injury though is that it has freed up my summers a bit so I can travel, which I'm currently taking full advantage of!

PHILOSOPHY

Hacuna matata + striving for excellence
