I'm a VERY recent (c/o 2007) graduate of UCSD with a degree in Electrical Engineering. As I've consistently given throughout my 4 years multiple, rather uncorrelated, reasons for entering this rather challenging field of choice, I'm going to conclude that I honestly do not know why I chose it in the first place, but can conclude that in the end, I enjoy what I do. Though now that I've since entered the job world in UCSD's Calit2 (Cal-I-T-squared) research institute, I can now sum up my purpose through my experiences in one word: TOYS.
Anyhow, enough of the technical stuff. Music is my second (or first? this is a hard one) love in addition to the engineering stuff. I love playing my guitars (electric/classical) - and try to pick up new songs as they come across me on a daily basis. My third love is languages; In addition to English I speak 2 other languages semi-fluently, which I try to practice each day in tandem with my music pursuits, and keep trying to learn more about the languages and the culture of the people that speak the language so as to truly discover the "soul" of the language.
On the outdoors side, I love playing soccer, cycling, and basketball. I also love to cook, especially in the realm of learning new recipes as well as throwing dishes together, incorporating several different styles into something quite extraordinary, yet at the same time tastes absolutely excellent!
