About Me

Slowly but surely figuring it all out. "What is important is to keep learning, to enjoy challenge, and to tolerate ambiguity. In the end there are no certain answers." Martina Horner

My Interests

learning, traveling, laughing, vegetarianism, trying out new restaurants, modern physics, world peace, architecture, black & white photography, thunderstorms, fsu football, riding my bike, hiking, reading, netflix, and good times with good friends.

I'd like to meet:

People that say what they mean and do what they say. The beginning of time. The summertime (all the time). A thunderstorm in LA. Less traffic on my daily commute. Direction in life. The Smokies and my family. World peace. Good friends. Smart people.
