About Me

Note: I run my blog through WordPress now.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.

Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I''ve learned here.

Unfortunately, I can't get rid of that astrology nonsense above. I encourage you all to take a look at this article by Richard Dawkins.
