Dr. 3ELMAH
In honor of Markusha's birthday, where ever he may be, a random and humorous skill set evaluation.
-Extensive training in French, training in German, training in Italian, training in Korean.
-Worked as University tutor in French, German, and English as a Second Language for Korean students
-Helped in audio creation for French Praxis Exam for ETS.
-Used Korean skills during internship with NJSO in 2004 to communicate with producers and sales to the Korean community. I also stopped some creepy guy from stalking Sumi Jo and stealing a bunch of money from NJSO.
-Created language based on English, Cyrillic symbols, and Arabic numerals. Only like two people other than me can read it.
I'm also interested in learning Russian next.
Competition:
-Was a member of the team that won the National Engineering and Design Competition something like ten years in a row.
-Won 2nd place in the bridge design contest for that team. (Designs were evaluated at Picatinny where a simulation machine was used to basically smash them to bits to see the point at which they would collapse.)
-Academic Decathlon Gold Medalist for Music, Silver Medalist for Neuroscience
-NFAA Merit Award recipient
-recipient of several university scholarships and grants.
Accents:
-After hanging out with so many people from Russia, I have developed the ability to immitate a Russian accent so well, I have managed to fool many Russians. The jig is always up when they start speaking Russian to me, though, ha.
-I can also do British, Irish, and several others.
Random training and research:
-Astro Physics
-Medicine and medical anthropology
-Immunology
-Phsychopharmacology
-Otolaryngology in relation to thyroid disease
Not so random training:
-Vocal performance and composition A.B. and M.M. from Ivy League schools
-international opera experience
-extensive training in classical voice, contemporary music performance, musicology, music theory, etc.
-Recipient of numerous awards and grants
-Tutor for university in music theory, music history
-experience as voice teacher for students of various ages and backgrounds
Other:
-Strong writing and reasoning abilities. Published essays.
-Experience in administration, software research, and funding research
Personality:
-Able to perform well under pressure
-Restless being in any one place too long
-Tendency towards depression
-Perfectionist
-Dedicated to succeeding at any given task
And yet my degrees (Bachelor and Master) are in music. Seriously, what should I do with my LIFE?

I also want to do things that matter. I want to change the world, move mountains, influence humanity and history for the better. At this point, even being an artist doesn't feel like its enough.

I'm not kidding. The single most productive and societally significant thing most ppl can do is write open source software. I try to contribute and if I weren't working two jobs, I'd be contributing a great deal more. Phuq, I would even re-learn C because it's that important.

The trick is you have to really want to do it. Continued interest in what you're doing will keep it going. That's why I didn't program for years was because I had no interest but now that I have a firm grasp on what is wrong with computing and what needs to be changed, my desire to do something about it is pretty high.
