[edit] A bit about me

I'm a recent graduate from the Classics program at the University of Texas at Austin, and a native-born Texan. When I am not immersed in Xenophon or catching up on my Biblical Greek, I am enjoying fine teas (Lapsang souchong being my favorite), dabbling in new computer software, listening to Prince (artist), scambaiting, or involved with my local Eastern Orthodox Christian parish. I am currently in the process of gaining teacher certification to teach middle and high school social studies. Afterward, I plan to attend St. Vladimir's Orthodox Theological Seminary in New York to obtain my Masters of Divinity, and consequently, be ordained a priest.

While I am not a newcomer to Wikipedia, very rarely will I submit my own contributions. I mostly enjoy reading and offering my input on articles on talk pages.

I'm a member of the the Self-Ruled Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America and also a contributor (a.k.a. Mike) to OrthodoxWiki[1], the wiki for Orthodox Christianity. I frequent this place more so than Wikipedia.
