I was born in Toronto, Canada on the birthday of Johannes Kepler. I currently live in Heidelberg, Germany with my daughter Evelin (on arm), son Nikolai (on head), and wife Anna (feral). Anna is also a scientist, and we collaborate on solving the two-body problem.


In my spare time I enjoy:
- Long walks
- Philosophy
- Video games
Sometimes I’m sporty and I:
- Ride bicycles
- Play tennis
- Paddle canoes
Contrary to popular expectation I do not enjoy:
- Mangos
- Tacos
- Beaches
With all that being said, these days I mostly just dad.
