About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To seek truth and answer my own questions

ABOUT ME

I am a Canadian, studying photovoltaics at the PhD level. I also studied physics, which should hint at a curious side. I love to hear differing opinions and to get the full story out of anything, no matter how menial.

I have been playing music for most of my life, and it has taken on my greatest love in this world. I'm definitely not picky when it comes to a style or genre, I think I simply love music...period.

I have seen so much beauty and have tried to make everyday interesting and educational.

Like most CS'ers, I am addicted to travelling, having really started when I was 16 in Europe, I have gone to see some pretty amazing things, but of course, the journey is never over.

In short, Im a pretty regular dude, who has a strange fascination with the mystique of this universe.

PHILOSOPHY

Learn by failing. Be willing to fail, and all knowledge will come.
