University Of California-Los Angeles
Los Angeles, CA
Graduated: N/A
Degree: Ph.D.
Major: Molecular Biology
Minor: bioinformatics (not that this is a true minor)
About me: Secret Identity: Graduate student in the oft bizarre intersection of biological science and computers called bioinformatics. Usually quiet until you say something first. Then, I tend not to shut up.
The Real Deal: Homebrewer, cautious optimist, angry liberal, occasional corruptor of the innocent. More fun than the nerd above would seem to be. Still a science geek, though... that's a major defining bit.
"He saunters at random, sometimes through real woods thick with trees, or, more commonly nowadays, cells thick with molecules, in search of objects and happenings still unimagined." -- E.O. Wilson, Consilience

Who I'd like to meet: Folks interested in exploring the cheap side of fun in Los Angeles and its surroundings. Must be able to provide own silly stories of good times past and/or meat to grill and/or trained dancing monkey.
