Bio:
Well, I'll be honest: I'm not one of those compulsive, hyper-organized, borderline-neurotic types. I prefer to be unconventional in my pursuit of overachieving; I embrace the chaos of daily information feeds because you never know when the next big idea is going to come your way. I love sports and music--both are therapeutic (to me) in their own ways. I love talking about possibilities and ideas but could care less about the weather. I love to travel (who doesn't), read, and play really intense pick-up basketball.

Why did you choose to be a part of the Orr Fellowship?
The human capital. The fellowship is full of Indiana's most innovative minds, and I wanted to be a part of that.

I would be insane to pretend to know that answer.
