ABOUT ME

My name is Rex, and it's not short for anything. I'm a fourth (Rex IV), though one fourth of my ancestry is a mystery, so we're in all likelihood related.

Just back from a five year stint in Saudi, I'm an English teacher by trade, linguist at heart, and I'll be starting a degree in International Development this Fall in Denver!
