I guess you want to know something about me. Let's see... I'm currently in my 4th year as an undergrad studying Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Born and raised in New "Joisey" Jersey, I've also lived in Folsom, CA (motto: the most boring part of the most fun state in the nation) and Dallas "Home of the Mavericks", TX.

At some point in the next millenium, I'll graduate (I hope). What I do then, the gods keep to themselves.

For fun, I like to hang off rocks. I've hung off rocks at Consumnes River Valley in Sacramento, the Wichitas in Oklahoma, the Reimer's ranch in Austin, Mineral Wells in Ft. Worth, and Cave Creek in Arkansas. I prefer trad, but even top-roped gym climbing is still fun for me.

What else... I like to read. A lot. Some favorite authors include Neal Stephenson, Hunter S. Thompson, Viktor Frankl, Orson Scott Card, and Douglas Adams.

I have a pet Madagascar hissing cockroach. His name is Jimmy. And once I slept on the ground for 8 months because I didn't feel like buying (or renting) furniture for my apartment.

Music? Music is good. I have an eclectic taste, but doesn't everyone? (or at least they claim) In any case, some of my favorite artists: Phish, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, U2, String Cheese Incident, Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Diamond Rio, the Dixie Chicks, Aphex Twin, Astral Projection, Dave Matthews Band, Cake, Barenaked Ladies, Jimmy Buffet, Paul Simon, the Allman Brothers, and well, you get the point.

By this point, you've probably stopped caring, so I'll stop writing.
