I am a student at the University of Texas at Austin, graduating in December 2006 with a BA in German and linguistics. I will attend UT's School of Information in the spring of 2007. I plan to receive a MLIS in information studies, with a concentration on archives, and a certificate of advanced study in conservation.

My hobbies include experimental, independent, and world music, film, travel, learning languages, reading, interesting food, antiques and rare books, and other cultural pursuits.

I'm not the worst person in the world.
