Outside of lab, you can usually find me cooking (and subsequently eating) or practicing yoga. When I have time (which is getting rarer and rarer these days), I also try to make time to volunteer at SF's Project Open Hand and the SPCA. You'll also find my name on the lab squash ladder (below everyone's, including Andrew's) but it's just a joke - I don't even play squash.
