About Me
I'm working at IBM. I graduated the Summer (2005) with a Computer Science (BS) degree. I enjoy cars, motorcycles, computers, and travel. Also there is something to be said for manual labor and working with you hands, so I tend to do a lot of woodwork, mechanics, and welding.
I'm a pretty adventurous guy and have a million crazy stories about things I've done. For a quick recent list I went to summer camp for 3 years and worked there for 2 years (crazy times), I've studied abroad in Spain, road a Harley from Austin to Vegas and back solo, no rental car is safe from my wrath and I've a spent a few weeks hanging out in India. I have a million other random stories from growing up too (I love to talk), so likewise I love to tell a good story.
