II have many interests from current events to competitive athletics. I'm a compassionate person and spend a bit of time helping others. When I take time for myself I like to head out to the coast and just relax. I like to travel although i do not do it enough. I think there is a saying "Traveling 10 roads is equal to reading 1000 books." When I do, i try to get in with the locals and away from the typical tourist stuff. I always have a "real" cultural experience when I do that. I've spent a lot of time in athletics and also work as a high school coach. I also have taught classes on and off at a couple of gyms that my friends own. To actaullly make money, I work as an engineer (semiconductors R& D) It's interesting to work with things that may actually change people's lives.
