CURRENT MISSION

Teach and learn. React and prepare. Set myself on track.

ABOUT ME

I am interested in music. I play guitar and I am working on getting a band together. I like to have discussions. Discussions about politics, science, science-fiction, anything quirky, philosophy, mostly the fundamentals of a well-wrought and constantly active mind.

I am very goofy and am pretty chill with anything. When I become inebriated, my friends tell me that I turn into a cartoon character...as well as being very talkative. Just as a warning if you're the quiet type.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is about meeting people. It's about enjoying interactions and failing miserably at comprehending the greatness of ourselves and our society. It's about discovery and about not missing out on the little things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to college and realized that there are vast sums of information running unchecked below my radar! And my hunger grew! Loving someone is amazing too. Quirks in people are also very fun. Trying things is always exciting. Just act and enjoy consequences.
