Interests

Middle-aged teenager at heart. Wide range of interests. Really. Just about anything. I have probably spent the most time in my life with researching, music, sports, movies, activism on environment and climate. Seahawks and other Seattle area sports fan, e.g., but also very involved in sustainability as a designer, teacher and activist. Love all areas of science, but also enjoy creative pursuits like music, cooking.
