About Me

I was walking down the hall of my building and there was a woman waiting for the elevator at the other end. I walked past her and made it four steps up the stairs when I turned around and said "hello."
I'm polite even if Boston has beaten a delay into the process.
I drink too much coffee and I putter time away without knowing how. Somehow everything gets done.
I'm in grad school and I work my tail off at a full time job as well. Hardcore.

Social Experiment?
