Beyond Academia

A little about life outside teaching, research, and statistics.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family and exploring the outdoors. Much of my free time is centered around activities we can enjoy together, whether that means a weekend camping trip, riding bikes, or finding a new trail to explore.

Things I Enjoy

Family Adventures

I enjoy spending time with my family and taking the kids on small adventures. We especially enjoy activities that get us outside and give us a chance to explore somewhere new together.

Outdoors

Some of my favorite activities include:

  • Camping
  • Biking
  • Hiking
  • Exploring mountain trails
  • Visiting waterfalls
  • Spending time in the Blue Ridge Mountains

I especially enjoy trails that lead to waterfalls or scenic overlooks.

Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is an important part of my background and remains a place I enjoy returning to and sharing with my family.

For me, time away from work is usually less about having a particular hobby and more about spending time with family, getting outdoors, and making new memories together.
