: About Me

When I was in middle school I wanted to be "a biologist, a computer programmer or a novelist" when I grew up. Since then, I have earned a bachelor's degree in biology, a master's in computer science and I have written one novel. Even so, my life hasn't quite turned out the way I expected.

My passion is ...

media, consciousness and technology.

I know too much about ...

nothing.

My parents always told me ...

things. I just didn't pay much attention.

My childhood ambition ...

to go to Japan, among other things.

My favorite memory ...

Wandering around in Japan was pretty high up on the list.

Why I write ...

I write because it is what I do.

What I am reading/watching/listening to ...

everything I can get hold of.

My first job ...

was in foodservice.

My best moment ...

"Best" is so...superlative and I'm trying to cut back on those.

My inspiration ...

exploring consciousness and reality.
