Other Activities and Interests

Founder and President, PGSS Alumni Association.

The Pennsylvania Governor's Schools of Excellence provided advanced educational experiences for high school students for decades, until the state cut them from the budget in 2009. My experience as a student at the Pennsylvania Governor's School for the Sciences (PGSS) in 1986 was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The Alumni Association is organizing the alumni towards the goal of restoring the school. This is the only educational institution I've ever been associated with where all the students were excited to learn and all the teachers were excited to teach.

Board of advisers, Magic, Palo Alto, CA.

Magic is a residential community (I lived there 2007-2009) where people think deeply about how to improve their own lives as well as the lives of others. They believe it is important to question all assumptions, particularly those we make about what we want in life. They propose the concept of "valuescience," using scientific principles to help us figure out what we really want, and how to get it.

Annual participation in the IAP Mystery Hunt at MIT.

The Mystery Hunt is probably the most elaborate puzzle-solving event in the world. Each year, I compete with a team to solve puzzles that lead to clues to the location of a coin hidden somewhere on campus. The puzzles are highly challenging and diverse. I captained the winning team in 1995, which led to the honor of organizing the 1996 Hunt. I also had the privilege of participating on the winning team in 2005, but declined the opportunity to write puzzles for 2006.
