| Interesting
fact, quality, or activity:
Currently a traitor to the engineering
field as a consultant; however,
on my way to pursuing my long
lived dream to solely travel and
get paid for it; while simultaneously
training as a competitive cyclist. |

Message: I hope to help
keep the class of 2004 united
through future class events. As
much as everyone denies it, I
think there's a small inkling
in all of us that misses MIT because
of the great people and potential
we all are and have. Hope
to see you around at one of our
mixers soon enough! |
