In my defence, I am from a place where EVERYONE is a nerd: Yale University (see image at right). I began as a physics major and ended up in biology, though I love both equally. I graduated in 2005.
Not ready to leave Yale, I decided to stick around and work in the biology department while I apply to medical school. My current lab, located in Kline Biology Tower (see image at left), studies the biology of cilia and flagella, specifically the process of intraflagellar transport, which it discovered in 1993.
I wish I were qualified to contribute to more areas of Wikipedia, but in my specialized knowledge of cell biology (and limited time), I tend to stick to the areas I know the most about (cilia, flagella, axonemes, etc.). Hence, I've sort of "adopted" a few articles in the cell biology section. Many of them contain a lot of disjointed "facts" about the subject, and I've been trying to synthesize them into readable articles.
Besides science, my passion is soccer. I am a hopeless fan of the USA national team, and am currently mourning our recent failure at the FIFAWorld Cup and retirement of my hero, veteran forward Brian McBride. I also wrote the article on Desmond Armstrong, a former player who later coached my little brother's team. A project I would like to try, if I ever get time, is to integrate Wikipedia's articles on the USA soccer players with information found at such websites as http://www.ussoccerplayers.com/ and http://www.soccerhall.org/index.htm
