Hobbies

I am an aspiring polymath with interests spanning almost every area of human inquiry and development. I enjoy providing a strong example of an inquisitive spirit whose curiosity is never exhausted, whether the subject be kung fu or cooking. When I'm not entertaining friends as master chef or sweating at my local dojo, I spend my time composing music, writing stories and directing short films, and researching my myriad fields of interest.
