This is my Wikipedia user page. I have contributed a fair amount in the past, but I am not particularly active in this project right now. That may change someday. My personal website is:
I am a student studying mechanical engineering, and thus many of my interests dutifully fall in the fields of aviation and space travel. My other interests are excessive to say the least, but they include literature, film, drama, history, linguistics, hiking, and cycling.
I have a gallery of photographs I have taken and uploaded to Wikipedia. You can also check out my user contributions if you feel so inclined.
