If you want Talk to me on google hangout with a video call, to see I'm a totally normal person. oscarg2040@gmail.com

I am currently attending the University Texas at San Antonio.

Cooking is really fun for me, learning new stuff, eating after is great.
I've learned to enjoy the simple things such as gazing at the stars or climbing a tree just for fun. just a calm regular person... But i can be wild and adventuresses too if the moment arises! and I like watching Netflix

I am also good with my hands, I grew up on a ranch and lived the Cowboy life growing up. I love horses and animals

I love organic synthesis(chemistry) of biological active compounds, I wish to make Pharmaceuticals that can help with cancer. and other drugs. I Love
(I'm kinda a nerd) :P

I am currently working at a research lab here at UTSA. its a chemistry lab working on total synthesis from natural products like amino acids. ( in simpler terms I help make drugs with more earth friendly materials)

here is a link to my lab: http://larionovgroup.com/our-team/
Its outdated some of the people don't even work there anymore (like half lol) and my boss never uploaded my picture ether:(
but the publications are up to date though!

hopefully this is enough information for any one thinking of staying with me to feel safe and comfortable.

Philosophy... open to all walks of life

I really want to learn Russian and French to a better level than I'm currently at, or any language really.

I'm pretty much down to learn anything new. from physical activities like gymnastics to mentally demanding topics in science&math... chilling and relaxing over a beer is cool too :) and I'm almost always down to do stuff.
