More information:
I'm a graduate student at UCLA in the Microbiology department. I try to go bouldering weekdays out at Stoney Point on my way to work since I work odd hours. I live in Pasadena w/ my fiance and our dog. I moved to the LA area in Jan '07. I'm hoping to climb The Nose on El Cap this fall and climb some more short walls whenever I can get the time off. I'm pretty casual about everything and am happy to climb a 5.5 or a 5.11. I like climbing awesome climbs whatever the rating.
