 Past
-
I was born in La Mirada, a city in
Southern California near Disneyland. I lived there until college,
although we did move once from one side of La Mirada to the other.
I went to Sunny Hills High School in Fullerton. Ever since I left
it's had problems. Coincidence? I think not!
I was a Regents' Scholar at the University of California at
Berkeley. I graduated with a B.S. in EE/CS and a minor in
physics.
I received a School of Engineering fellowship
at Stanford University, where I earned a
Ph.D. I worked in the group of Professor Dan Boneh, where
I concentrated on the intersection of
electrical engineering and cryptography. More information is
waiting for you on my research
page.
I was married in October 2005 to my girlfirend of 9.75 years. We honeymooned
in Italy.
Family
-
I have a great family, but they live 500 miles away and I don't get
to see them much. My Dad is a city councilman in La Mirada and teaches pharmacy
tech. at a local college. My brother graduated from Yale and is now a graduate student
in Electrical Engineering at the University of Washington in
Seattle. My Mom is the reason that we're still sane. She does a
lot of volunteer work in the comunity.
Pets
-
My parents have a cat, Thorn, who has to live in the laundry room
because he goes to the bathroom on the furniture. They also have a
dog, Puppy, who was a stray a many years ago and is now a member of
the family. Puppy loves everyone.
Our dog, Rose, died a few years ago. She was a Cairn Terrier, like
Toto in
The Wizard of Oz. She was very old, and luckily I happened
to visit only a few days before it happened. I was her favorite,
and she was mine.
We have some more pets, but they have their own page.
Interests
-
I was the president of a couple of martial arts clubs at Stanford,
the Stanford Aikido Club,
and the Aiki-weapons
club, but I had to abdicate the presidencies to work on my
disesrtation. I still practice both martial arts, though, and also
practice weapons under Tetsutaka
Sugawara. In the past I dabbled in Hung Gar kung fu,
Judo, wrestling, Tai Chi, and Systema, and wish I could continue
to practice them all.
I try to lift weights and jog a couple of times each per week.
I enjoy reading science fiction, fantasy, and horror books and listen
mostly to classic rock, heavy metal, and 80's music.
And now, what you've all been waiting for... Cathy! She's the bestest. Almost 11 years
and we're still going strong.

Turtles!
- Cathy and I have five turtles. Three of them
are males about 8 years old, and the other two are females about 10 years
old. All five turtles are Red-Eared sliders, which means that they have two
big red spots on their heads, one right behind each eye.
I always thought that turtles were really slow, but that's not true.
Tortoises (land turtles) are slow, but turtles (water turtles) move very
quickly, especially when they're scared or hungry. They're also a lot
smarter than I thought reptiles would be. They're always swimming around
and exploring their tank, and they like to watch what's happening outside
their tank. The only problem with them is that they carry the risk of
salmonella, so we have to wash our hands really well after we handle them.
Plus, they swim in their own waste, which is just yucky.
All of the turtles in a huge glass aquarium on our balcony. I believe
that it would hold about 80 gallons if it was full, but it's only halfway
full. The aquarium is split into four sections with wire mesh. Each of
the males has its own section, and the two females share a larger section.
It's easier to keep them separated than to have them fighting all the
time. And cheaper, since the vet bills had become quite expensive.
I made a plastic shelf that runs the length of the tank, and put a big,
flat rock on the shelf in each section. When it's sunny, the turtles
climb on the rocks and sun themselves. There's also wire mesh on top of
the tank so that they can't climb out. It's not really a concern for the
small ones, but the two females would be just about big enough to make it
out without the lid.
There's a really nice filter on the tank, as well as two heaters.
This is like a penthouse suite, if you're a turtle.
The Big Guys
- Dong and Paisley are the females, which is one reason why they're so
much bigger than the others. They've gotten so big that
they're hard to hold with one hand. They're maybe
7 inches wide and 9 inches long. They could probably do some serious
damage if they bit someone, but they never try. Dong's the smart one,
Paisley not so much.
The Babies
- P.J., Amelia, and Whytee are the males. We know this because they
have really long claws on their front legs. They're about four inches in diameter.
- They all have distinct personalities. PJ's afraid of everything.
Whytee's really agressive and tries to bite everything. Luckily, he's
not too smart. Amelia's the smartest. She's learned that fingers
bring food, and yet are not themselves food, so she doesn't try to
bite fingers very often.
