Personal

Bio

I was born in the late 1980s in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I grew up in a pretty quiet neighborhood, and through junior and senior high excelled at physical sciences. After senior high, I entered university to study engineering, choosing after the first year to pursue Computer Engineering. I have only one more year left of study before I graduate. After graduation, I plan on working for awhile but going back to school for masters degree or more is not off the table for me.

Hobbies

I enjoy biking, raquetball, coding, video games, music, reading, and hanging out with friends in my spare time. I know how to play the clarinet, saxaphone, a trumpet - though I haven't played any in quite a long time. I am currently taking drum lessons with John McCormick at Alberta College in Edmonton and jam with friends. I listen to many different genres of music, but mainly to metal/rock , industrial, and electronica, but also listen to folk music, jazz, hiphop, and choral pieces.

Recently I started painting miniatures again, after a fairly long hiatus. Originally, I simply painted them for my Warhammer 40, 000 armies but I stopped playing the game (rules bogged down having fun too much!). However, I rediscovered the fun of painting miniatures and am back at it with renewed vigor and a different perspective on the work. You can see the models I do in the miniature gallery on this site.

Games

I play some games when time permits such as Left 4 Dead, Dawn of War II, and Rock Band. I am also a member of a mature gamers organization, which is linked below.
