I'm originally from LA, and moved to the DC area in 2004. I love hiking, skiing, weight-lifting, and recreational sports (softball, broomball, dodgeball). I also enjoy plays, jazz concerts, and stand-up comedy.

I started working for the Federal Government last year after spending the previous 6 years as a government contractor. I'm very satisfied with where my career has taken me, and I couldn't be happier in my current position.
