About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is not clear. I'm wandering but I'm not lost. I have things I want to do but no plan to get them done.

ABOUT ME

Reliable and conscientiousness. Thoughtful and open minded. Intrigued as well as intriguing. Not shy but certainly not outgoing either.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm interested in what makes people believe weird things. Like why do people believe in conspiracies and moon hoaxes and vitamins and organic food. Why do people think psychology is a science and that there is any possible way that anyone can predict the end of the world. I'm captivated by what constitutes knowledge and evidence in some people's opinion.

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite books are non-fiction. My music is random. I listen to a lot of podcasts and I think it's because it seems more real and I feel like I know the hosts.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm an ex-air force pilot. A lot of people think that's exciting but it's not that big a deal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like debate for debate sake. And I like people who can argue, lose or win, and not take it personally.

For an ex-pat, I know Hong Kong very well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Knowledge of the city. Clean comfortable accommodations.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, China, France, Thailand, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, China, United States
