I am adventurous, quirky, and outdoorsy.
My Self-Summary
I'm another software engineer who works in the south bay with a
bunch of brilliant married nerds -- one of my coworker's favorite
number is his name in hex. Another coworker graduated Cal-Tech
where one student was pranked by finding his Porsche in his dorm
idling.
I'm nerdy but not to the level of the my coworkers. I don't play
video games, dungeons and dragons, and my favorite number isn't pi
or e. Winter's my favorite season and I love skiing and
snowboarding. My boss knows that during the winter if it's raining
in San Jose, I'm not coming in to work.
During the other seasons I surf, dive, hike, run, swim and travel.
One of my coworkers got me into a running a few years back and I've
been hooked since. I love to travel and try to go somewhere new
every year. This year I'm going to Chile.
What I’m doing with my life
I work hard, but I don't live to work. In my free time, I like to
travel, hang out with friends and do my hobbies.
I’m really good at
Math, skiing, snowboarding, diving.
The first things people usually notice about me
My European accent.
My favorite books, movies, music, and food
Books: Nelson DeMille's Plum Island, Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air,
Study, Work Hard and Stay out of Politics. Hooked on Nelson DeMille
books at the moment.
Music: I like a large mix. Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, Garth
Brooks, Classical, Top 20, Opera.
Food: I'll try anything and I enjoy all kinds food from Indian.
Middle Eastern food to pho. I'm not a picky eater.
Movies: There Will Be Blood, Million Dollar Baby, The Hangover,
Zombieland.
The six things I could never do without
There really isn't much I could never do without. I believe in
making the most with what you have.
But life without friends, internet, humor, ski/surf, airplanes and
music would kinda suck.
I spend a lot of time thinking about
politics, social issues, traveling, hobbies
On a typical Friday night I am
skiing, surfing, go into the city, and hanging out with friends.
