Hello my name is Eric and I live in Los Angeles

I'm a graduate student in the department of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Southern California.  I've been working on my Ph.D. for a number of years, and I'm getting close to completing it.  In addition to my research, I spent some time in student government, the S.M.G.S.A.  While I was there, we brought a career fair, called Bioscope, to the health sciences campus. 

Later, I co-founded, along with my friends Didi Yao, Eric Sandberg, and Reuben Kalra, a group called the Graduate Technology Alliance.  It's a fantastic organization made up of graduate students in Engineering, the Biological Sciences, and Business.  Our goal is to foster the creation of new technologies and companies based on the research of faculty members here at USC.  We put on biannual events that showcase some of the cutting edge research going on at our university.

When I do get a chance to go out, I like ocean kayaking, playing soccer, developing new stuff for my tablet PC, watching soccer, and giving my ATM pin number to beautiful women.
