Books: I enjoy mostly nonfiction books. One of my favorite authors is Malcom Gladwell, so if you know any of his books you have an idea of the kind of reading I like to do. His books involve answering a lot of little questions we might wonder about like Why do some things go viral? or Why are there dozens of varieties of mustard but only one variety of ketchup? Pretty cool stuff

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

-Service trip to Haiti. This trip taught me a lot about the world, about people, myself... it changed the way I think about religion forever (not in the way you might think).

-Joined a team of shark researchers in the Bahamas who were there tagging pregnant tiger sharks. I was in charge of documenting the entire expedition which included swimming with tiger sharks over 14 feet long - they're just big goldfish
