About Me

CURRENT GOALS

1. Travel somewhere new once a year; 2. Learn Swedish; 3. Learn how to make a really really good quiche; 4. Support local artists; 5. Make Atlanta a better place

ABOUT ME

By day: research chemist and reluctant grown-up; By night: concert goer, cooking novice, board game enthusiast, art lover.

PHILOSOPHY

Plan for the future, keep it in the back of your mind, but most importantly don't forget to have a really really good time right now. Also, the better your life is, the more you can help make other people's lives better too.
