I'm a third-year undergraduate student majoring in linguistics at the University of California, Los Angeles.

Almost all of what I know about photography was introduced to me by my boyfriend.

Aside from the obvious (photography, linguistics), my interests include evolutionary biology, paleontology, the geologic time scale, voice actors, autism, computer and video games, bizarre religious cults, Futurama, cooking and baking, survival strategies in the event of a zombie apocalypse, a number of webcomics, Eldritch abominations, and certain aspects of Japanese culture.

And, as you may be able to tell from my favorites, I have a fondness for German shepherd dogs.

I don't often update my photostream due to a combination of film's slow and steady nature and my own laziness, but if for some reason you're interested in what I'm up to outside Flickr, you can try to follow me on Twitter.

Feel free to ask me questions.
