About Me

UPDATE: I am an uncle again! Woo hoo!

Everyday, I reflect on what I can do better in this life.

Friends and family are what matter the most to me. I'll do whatever it takes to make them happy.

I love to learn. Knowledge is empowering. I like to emerse myself in all forms of media, anything that will help me gain knowledge, understanding and perspective.

<3 Robert
