About Me

I spend my days dreaming and my nights trying to fall asleep.

News Junkie, Policy-Wonk-in-Training, Serial Entrepreneur and blogger.

I used to think it was a terrible thing that life was so unfair. Then I thought, 'what if life were fair, and all of the terrible things that happen to us came because we really deserved them?' Now I take great comfort in the general unfairness and hostility of the universe.

I don't check myspace often these days. Use [email protected] to reach me quickly.
