I'm happy in lots of different situations, from beach volleyball to jazz clubs, game nights to day hikes. A bit of a geek, but in the good way.

I am automatic, systematic, and hydromatic

Writing and designing videogames-- I love games and puzzles. I'm also doing computer science research at USC.

Writing, whistling, backrubs,.. A while back, I was also a decent sax player, and I used to make pop-up books by hand.

Sharp wit and kind personality.

Books: I've been on a Neal Stephenson and Dan Simmons kick lately.

Movies: For some reason, the movies I've seen over and over again are The Godfather 1&2, The Princess Bride, and Brazil.

Music: Varying tastes, but a simple rule: the less it sounds like "God Bless Texas," the more I like it. Great music gives me goosebumps.

Food: Good food is good food. Burgers at The Counter / Beach 26 have been a fave lately, and izakaya at Hamakaze. I love sushi, except for the sea urchin. That's not food. Come on.

Love, friendship, challenges, laughter, ability to count correctly

What makes a game fun, and about my friends and family. I sometimes wonder how many times I've been "...this one guy..." in strangers' stories.

Hanging out with friends in various places.

I tend to yo-yo in weight but am trying to stabilize. Otherwise, ask me privately!

You're a bonobo too.
