My Self-Summary

I am a farm boy from Montana enjoy the outdoors, reading, cooking ethic dishes, great coffee and geeky stuff like science and technology. Last summer I graduated with a double BA in Psychology and Biology from the University of Montana.

I recently quit my job in an electrophysiology lab and adventured/couchsurfed/biked around Europe for two months before school this semester. So far I'm loving life in Albany and feeling excited to see a deciduous forest transition to winter.

I've got two younger brothers. One is attending the University of Washington for his PhD in computational linguistics and the other is dancing at the Boston Ballet.

What I’m doing with my life

I'll be going to Albany Medical College in the fall. Depending on which day of the week you ask, the weather, and what I had for lunch, I would probably endorse an interest in a different specialty. Currently, I waiver between child psychiatry, neurology, and general surgery -- but I can't know 'till I've tried it!

Other than that I am planning on doing "great things", traveling, and couch surfing.

I’m really good at

Cooking and gardening -- Cooking is my favorite way to wind down from a long day. I like to make curries and dahls, black bean burgers, all types of stir fry, pizza, bread, and falafel. I experiment all the time and rarely follow the recipe (unless it's really good). Sidenote: I'm a veg-head who doesn't mind carnivores.

Dancing -- I love to teach and learn new types of dancing. As a fair warning, I can be a hazard on the dance floor when the music strikes me.

Sports -- Mostly running, ultimate, tennis, skiing, racquetball and biking. But I like to learn and play almost anything. I want to learn how to swim so I can manage a triathlon someday.

Fixing things -- I like to tinker and fix things like bikes, cars, gadgets, or computers. I've broken/fixed/built them all at some point.

The first things people usually notice about me

My dashing good looks . . . that I'm a snappy dresser . . . and I ooze modesty.

I'm also really easy talk to, and I'll strike up a conversation with almost anyone.

My favorite books, movies, music, and food

Of Course no list is complete. Here are some books, movies, etc that just came to mind while I should have been analyzing data.

Books: Recently I've been reading a lot of history books like Gandhi and Churchill and The Professor and the Madman but I also like Catcher in the Rye, The Omnivore's Dilemma - Michael Pollan, Loves Executioner - Irvin Yalom, Man's Search for Meaning - Victor Frankel, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, Complications - Atul Gawande, The Illustrated Man - or anything by Ray Bradbury, Catch 22, A Clockwork Orange, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Movies: The Life Aquatic, Pan's Labyrinth, Amelie, Grave of the Fireflies, Princess Mononoke, Casablanca, No Country for Old Men, Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog 2001: A Space Oddesy, Ran, Full Metal Jacket, The Sting, The Incredibles, Lord of the Rings, Milk, Ratatouilli (best Pixar movie ever)

TV: Firefly, Futurama, The Office, Flight of the Conchords, Battlestar Galactica, Gunslinger Girl, This American Life, The Daily Show, Scrubs

Websites I visit when I feel compelled to procrastinate: Xkcd, Wikipedia, npr, Economist Fivethirtyeight, Reddit or Digg, and Phd Comics

The six things I could never do without

I could never do without caramelized banana and walnut pancakes, my brothers, my bike, humor, a good romp, or absolutes (such as "I could never" (or parenthetical statements (or heavily nested statements (or thoughtful grammar)))).

I spend a lot of time thinking about

Thinking . . . I must introspective-recursive.

I like to keep up on politics, what I'm having for dinner, words, neurons, and social issues.

Also, I wonder if it should bother me that my clothes are infinitesimally lighter each time I clean the lint trap in the dryer. And what happened to my other black sock? Maybe I should become a Buddhist . . .

On a typical Friday night I am

On a Friday night I like to hit the dance floor and contra, swing, or salsa. Going to a club or spending time with friends is always great. However, I have no qualms spending a night at home with a great meal and a movie or playing board games (like Settlers of Catan or Boggle). It all depends -- I'm pretty flexible.

The most private thing I’m willing to admit here

I have a man-crush on Ira Glass.

When I'm in a really good or sour mood I sing/hum/whistle Boom De Ya Da (click it -- it will cheer you up!) under my breath or in a booming baritone.

I would like to think I'm a good whistler.

I sometimes pretend I know more about art/architecture/literature than I actually do.

I am a horrendous speller but a good proof-reader.

You should message me if

Shoot me a line if you want a fun dance partner, like to cook, want to take a trip, or if you just want to hang out and shoot the breeze.
