About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Lo mismo que todas las noches Pinky... tratar de conquistar al mundo!!!

ABOUT ME

A citizen of the world living in San Diego. Mechanical engineer doing cool 3D printing stuff. Former bartender, which was a great way to meet all sorts of exciting and/or aggravating people. I love meeting people from all over the world and CS is the next best thing besides actually traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Five out of three schoolchildren have trouble understanding basic fractions...
Do strippers in Australia spin counterclockwise?
