CURRENT MISSION

To be a very awesome guest for a very awesome person with a couch.

ABOUT ME

I believe that I'm a product of the societies in which I've participated. Thus, I am a BXV-ilian, an SYA-er, a P2SF-er, a MOHO, and an LSE-er all tied up into one relatively small ball of smiles. (I'm listing them out to see if anyone else knows of these programs/places!) If you don't know what I'm talking about, I'd love to meet you and explain what all those acronyms stand for, and in doing so I hope I will learn all about you as well! :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Fix the mind on truth; cling to virtue; give play to loving-kindness; recreate yourself with the arts." The Analects
