About Myself

I like to think that my life is centered around lots of different creative pursuits. When I'm not designing a website or working on a painting, I'm working on a PhD at Purdue University in the Department of Communication in the area of Media, Technology and Health. At Purdue, I am a research assistant in a variety of areas, and I occasionally teach undergraduate classes. I enjoy being in an academic field-- I love to read and learn and absorb all types of knowledge.
