All generalizations are false, including this one….
I was born in Boise Idaho, and grew up living between Boise, and the Seattle area. I graduated from Boise High School in 2000 and Went directly to the University of Idaho where I began my degree in being away from home. In August of 03 I enlisted in the United States Army as a Combat Engineer for 5 years. In the Army I gained skills in Combat Arms, Demolitions, Diplomacy, and Leadership. I got the chance to put it all to use while serving with the 1st Engineer Battalion in Kaldia, Ramadi, Fallujah and Al Asad Iraq. In Feb of 2008, after achieving the rank of Sergeant, I was medically discharged due to injuries received over seas. I returned to Moscow in hopes of using the skills I have gained to acheive my goals, and finish my initial degree of Electrical Engineering with an added bonus of Physics. I HOPE to graduate with both by 2012. I am Currently working as a Phlebotomist at Pullman Regional Hospital in Pullman.

Donkies taste like chicken. (JUST KIDDING!)
The good, the bad, and the nerdy….
Since I was 10 years old I have had an interest in space, electronics, and robotics, I decided then that I wanted to be an Astronaut, and I have still yet to out grow that goal. I have worked everywhere from a private computer shop to Schweitzer Engineering Labs, From Janitorial to Phlebotomy. I enjoy learning new skills and applying them to future situations. I believe you should never stop learning.
I enjoy everything from playing my guitar, writing songs and poetry to building and designing new robot concepts, and contemplating the end of civilization be it from war, famine, or the zombie apocalypse. I love a great book or a great conversation, I am easy going and try to live my life one day at a time, with my personal mantra:
Learn something new and make someone laugh each day; at the end of the day regardless of all else, you have enriched your own life, and made someone elses day just a bit better.
