Hobbies
In my free time I enjoy running, going out to eat (Jin Sho in Palo Alto is a personal favorite!), watching films, being out and about in nature. I like to make people laugh and am often making jokes. I'd receive an A in sarcasm if it were offered as a course. Since it's not, rest assured I'm self-taught, but highly proficient : ) .
