My Interests:

Sports: Tennis, golf, disc golf, caving, anything whitewater

Music: Most anything, but I love Linkin Park, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Better than Ezra

I love books. Mostly I read works relevant to my fields of study, but I also enjoy philosophy and good science fiction. Dune and Ender's Game are classics.

I dabble in computing as well, and I've built a few in recent years for family and friends. I'm always happy to revert to nerd-mode and talk tech and gadgets.

Favorite Quote:

"I have walked through many lives,
some of them my own,
and I am not who I was,
though some principle of being
abides, from which I struggle
not to stray."

About Me:

I'm currently completing my undergraduate degree in political science with a focus on international relations, Near Eastern studies, and conflict studies.

Also, I'm serving as campaign manager for John Olesnevich's bid for the state representative seat in PA's 12th legislative district. We're working to unseat Daryl Metcalfe, the most radically conservative politician in PA (and probably in the top 10 nationwide), and build a new coalition dedicated to propelling our community towards a truly secure and prosperous future.
