INTERESTS AND ACTIVITIES
Programming and Technology: In my free time, I enjoy studying online courses and tutorials to broaden my
technical knowledge and see real world contexts for topics discussed in classes. When I have time off I like to
dive into a textbook and solve exercises. This practice enabled me to reach my current knowledge level of
C++ and Python. My self-learning has helped fuel my healthy passion for privacy software in areas of
encryption and anonymization, as well as Bitcoin and other innovative Crypto-Currencies.
Health and Fitness: I have always enjoyed road biking and occasionally enter into bike racing team events
and multi-day group biking tours. I also like to sprint, jog, skate, and resistance train. Recently I’ve started
downhill skiing.
Miscellaneous Areas of Interest: I like to read books, blogs, and listen to interviews pertaining to other areas
of Social and Natural Sciences, especially Economics, Legal Theory, Evolution, and Nutrition.
