About Me edit

Hello. My name is Owen McGaughey. I am a senior in high school in Connecticut. I will be going to college somewhere this fall. I am a new user of Wikipedia; I joined on February 11, 2006.

I have many interests that I pursue. First off, I am a roadgeek. I have had an interest in roads since I was very young. Since then, this interest has branched into interests in transportation in general, transit, urban planning, and to a lesser extent, urban sociology. I am highly proficient in math and science, and plan to become a transportation engineer. I have a road-related website, Nutmeg Roads.

I have not yet created or significantly edited any Wikipedia pages yet. When I do, I will post them here.

Also, you can learn a bit more about me by seeing my userboxes below.
