Do you participate in any sports?
Yes, I'll attempt to participate in any sport. The only sport I've played with any regularity or in any official mannor is bowling, which I've done since I was 8 years old.
The best way to spend a free afternoon in the Tri-Cities area is:
Anywhere other than in front of a computer. This may be an unusual answer for a computer scientist, but there's so much more out there than the computer screen in front of you.
Sum up your life philosophy:
I'm too young to have a "life philosophy". My current philosophy is simple, be friendly to those around you and work like you mean it. You never know when you'll meet someone that will change your life, and you never know when a opportunity will arise.
Favorite local food source:
Yamato's - without any doubt. You can't beat it for the price. My kitchen isn't a bad one either.
What is the best course on campus? Why do you think so?
CSCI 1510 or 4800 (night section)
I started at ETSU a long time ago and 1510 was by far the best course I took my first two years.
Working in the school system in 4800 my last semester as an undergraduate was a great course since it allows you to use the skills you've learned in a practical environment while gaining valuable experience.
If you're looking to get rid of some stress - marksminship isn't bad either :)
What was your first job?
Serving ice cream in a mall food court.
What is your hometown?
I grew up in south Florida and moved to the Gatlinburg area from 1994 to 1998.
If you could change one thing about ETSU or your time here, what would it be?
Well, I've tried this once and failed already. We need an organization that has NOTHING to do with school or computer science. This organization will strictly be a way for students to get to know eachother in a different context and have a little fun. I think all students need that!
Favorite outdoor activity:
Ultimate frizbee. It's the perfect excuse to run around and make a fool of yourself. You can't beat fun like that.
What surprised you the most when you first came to ETSU?
The parking - geez!
