  • About me:  I’m 21 and a student here in Austin. I love cars, bikes, and pretty much anything else that goes FAST!  I’ve lived in Norway, India, and Germany but I was born in Texas and I call this place home. 
  • Interests:  Most everything really… I’m open to new ideas and am constantly seeking to understand the world around me. I love nature and the outdoors, animals, and science. I find Economics and the workings of politics, business, and the environment fascinating. I’m curious about religion in all its forms.  But sometimes I get  tired of thinking and just enjoy a good run on town lake, an evening out, some good food, or a spirited drive down 2222.
  • Music:  Rage Against the Machine, The Beatles, Bob Marley, Jack Johnson, Elliott Smith, Weezer, Nirvana, Paolo Nutini, Ghostland Observatory, MGMT.
  • Movies:  This would take way too long… so I’ll just list a few off the top of my head, Jurassic Park – (saw it in the theatre when I was 5 and it forever left its mark), The Pursuit of Happiness, Lock Stock and two Smoking Barrels, Ocean’s 11, Most of the old James bond movies, (although the new ones seem to be going downhill).
  • Books:  Hot Flat and Crowded by Thomas Friedman, thriller novels by Michael Crichton, The Selfish Gene, The Economist Magazine, and I am also a Harry Potter nut.
