EVERYTHING
FUN FACTS

I trained in an aikido dojo for a month. It can really flip how you see the world.

I took a 10-hour mime intensive training course over a weekend. Great practice in nonverbal expression... and making invisible walls.

I learned how to code with Learn Python the Hard Way, when it was still free. I've also worked with Robot-C, MATLAB, Arduino, Java, and Javascript.

I was certified by the Emergency Care & Safety Institute in Wilderness First Aid. Certification involved living in the Florida wilderness for a week with other trainees.

I learned parkour by watching YouTube videos - I can vault over small walls and rails, for convenience getting around town.

I became the regular host of an open mic night after I kept on going there to beatbox.

I won second place in a sustainability competition by going vegan for a week. First place won by recycling more items. I try to be flexitarian these days (i.e., cutting down on meat when possible).

When I first created my Goodreads account, I logged reviews for every book I read. I was temporarily the #16th Goodreads reviewer in the world for a week.
