PERSONAL

So you want to know more about me? Where should I start?

I was born in Seattle in 1970, grew up in Olympia, and lived a couple other places before finally moving back to Seattle for graduate school at the University of Washington. I have lived in Washington my whole life, and I love it here. The wealth of natural beauty more than makes up for the gray and rainy days.

I love music. Want to know more? Check out my music page.

[STP riders] To keep in shape, I have taken up weight training. I also enjoy racquetball, and occasionally play some badminton, tennis, and volleyball too. When the weather isn't too ugly, I do a fair amount of bicycling. In 1995, I participated in the 2-day, 200-mile Seattle-to-Portland ride with some other crazy people in my department. Next time, the craziest among us might try to do it in one day! I used to do a lot of mountain biking too, but that has tapered off since the graduation of our fearless group leader, Pardo.

Occasionally I will have a creative outburst. Many have made their way to one of the finest sites on the Web, The Otter Pops Home Page. My contributions include theories on the origins of Sir Isaac Lime, Otter Pops haiku and my personal favorite, Freezing Pot. (I have also been sighted masquerading as Alexander the Grape.) I am also guilty of writing for and performing in the graduate student skit at our department's annual holiday party. I may be a horrible actor, but I'm pretty good at rewriting song lyrics. Past contributions have included: [Otter Pops]
