I'm a graduate student of Chemical Physics at Columbia University, in the group of David Reichman, in the general field of theoretical chemistry. In particular, I am researching the theoretical basis of amorphous solids, also known as glasses.
In the past, I was an undergraduate at the University of Texas at Austin where I researched solvation and statistical mechanics under Peter Rossky, a theoretical chemist. I also used to work as a TA for physical chemistry courses while in Austin. In my free time, I walk, take pictures, and think of silly comic ideas based on what I see around me (at least I used to).
This page is mostly for static information, I don't get around to updating it very often. The comic is often updated, come back and check it out (or use the RSS or email service). Other than that, the links below are organized roughly from most interesting to least interesting.)
It's for sure the first place to go to figure out what's on my mind. It covers random academic-related things. Update: It's sort of stalled.
I like to take interesting pictures. Most of them don't make it here, but I try to put up whatever I can, whenever I have time. Also, you might want to check out the weekly photo contest.))
I (along with my friends) have started a wiki for us to document computer-related stuff (along with anything else we feel like doing).
I try to scan in all of the notes I take in my classes. This is an archive of what I've finished scanning so far. Sometime, I really need to document what the numbers mean.
Various things I've written. Right now stuff is only updated when I manually put it here, so it's outdated and incomplete. I should put it on automatic updating sometime, and document what's available. See my page in the wiki for some documentation (note: it's mostly not there yet).
