Bio
Hi!

I'm a 5th-year math graduate student at UCSD. Before I was at UCLA doing math/compsci. Guess which one I ended up liking better. My current interest (still subject to change, often from minute to minute) is in geometric analysis, an area of math at the intersection of differential geometry and analysis. Of equal importance, and perhaps greater difficulty, I am also on a quest to become more Mature, Responsible, Assertive, and Emotionally Stable (MRAES). However the existence of this LJ, of course, should be a testament to my failure to make much progress in that regard =)

So in my free time (hrm... what free time?), I try to do what's interesting... As you can see below, there's no shortage of that. Some of the more esoteric interests have (or eventually will have) entries to explain them; check to see whether an LJ-tag exists in this journal for that interest (yay for LJ-tags!)
