About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn.

ABOUT ME

Hello! I just graduated with mechanical engineering degree from UT last spring. I'm currently working at a hospital as a CNA, and I have been accepted to medical school. I hope to do a lot of traveling before I start school later this year. I'm a rather low-key kind of guy (INTJ MBTI), but I'm always up to meeting new people and learning new things.

As a sidenote, I'm gay, if that helps you feel more or less comfortable.

PHILOSOPHY

"There's a poetry of common sense in their scheme for immortality. Eat sensibly. Keep walking. Keep knitting. If you can't keep friends, make new ones. Plan so much invigorating work that there's just no time to die. And no regret when you do." from Time article "How to Live to be 100"
