I'm from Wallingford, Connecticut, but have had various homes all along the east coast including, briefly, Canada.  I am majoring in mathematics and economics and am in my first year here at Stony Brook.  My favorite author is Douglas Adams by far simply due to his absurd writing style, but I also enjoy the Harry Potter series and am really looking forward to the upcoming Hobbit film.   I've been a Boy Scout since 6th grade and made my Eagle Rank just before coming to here.  I enjoy the outdoors and especially love skiing. I hope to one day find a career in the field of Quantitative Analysis.
