ABOUT ME

All aboat me, eh?

Ahm from nawthern Florida, wur we tawk lak this, though my parents were from Hong Kong la. Tzun hai lor.... Went to college in bahstan and learned mad stuff, though spent mah recent summers in North Idaho building hiking trailsers.

In college, I ran me some marathons, did me some math, sang me some gospel, and was out of tune in another choir and another orchestra.

Then for 2 years and some, I went to a job where I stared at numbers and tried to make them blue.

And then I traveled aboot for another 2,

learned 中文 for another 1,

and finally moved to Germany to stare at more numbers until I'm blue in the face.

I also like playing with my stuffed animals.
