About me: technophile, information junkie, non-monogamous, nerd queer. i'm an optimist; i believe strongly in the concept of living karma. i believe the best things in life aren't things. i am into ending the allure of the obvious. i'm anti-consumerist, anti-americancapitalist, concerned citizen of the world. i dig solving problems at the intersection of society and technology. life without passion is worthless, so get on the dancefloor and shake that booty!
