This is the the newest (and more elegant) reincarnation of the website that I began in college and abandoned for several years while I was wandering in Germany and along the frozen plains of Massachusetts. I am now a graduate student at UC-Berkeley pursuing my Ph.D. in Biophysics alongside the other fine scholars in the Biophysics Graduate Group. Although this site will in all inevitability become dominated by a record of my scientific endeavors, I would be amiss to not mention my companion and confidant on this adventure - the lovely Amy Sturtz (even if she thinks that this is a twisted exercise in vanity). She has an amazing way of tempering me when I begin to go too far astray.
