About

You mean you don’t know who I am?!  Just kidding.

I’ll start by giving myself one of those journalist-y style introductions:

Robert is a native Houstonian who left the blue skies and hot sun of the Texas Gulf Coast for the misty clouds and perennial drizzle of the Pacific Northwest a few years back. He now resides in Seattle where he lives, works and attends school. When he’s not busy at work, or buried in books at the UW, he enjoys making light social commentary on the peculiarities of Seattle metro living and exploring the Puget sound region.
